Mutation Analysis of the <i>TGFBI</i> Gene in Consecutive Korean Patients With Corneal Dystrophies

Abstract

This study provides epidemiological insight into CDs in a Korean population and reaffirms that GCD2 is the most common TGFBI CD phenotype and that p.R124H is the only mutation identified in patients with GCD2. In addition, we broaden the spectrum of TGFBI mutations by identifying two novel missense variants in patients with LCD1.
