• Evaluation of Shared Genetic Susceptibility to High and Low Myopia and Hyperopia. - JAMA ophthalmology (2022) · Tideman JWL, Pärssinen O, Haarman AEG, Khawaja AP, Wedenoja J, Williams KM, Biino G, Ding X, Kähönen M, Lehtimäki T, Raitakari OT, Cheng CY, Jonas JB, Young TL, Bailey-Wilson JE, Rahi J, Williams C, He M, Mackey DA, Guggenheim JA · PubMed 33830181

  Uncertainty currently exists about whether the same genetic variants are associated with susceptibility to low myopia (LM) and high myopia (HM) and to myopia and hyperopia. Addressing this question is fundamental to understanding the genetics of refractive error and has clinical relevance for genotype-based prediction of children at risk for HM and for identification of new therapeutic targets. To assess whether a common set of genetic variants are associated with susceptibility to HM, LM, and hyperopia. This genetic association study assessed unrelated UK Biobank participants 40 to 69 years of age of European and Asian ancestry. Participants 40 to 69 years of age living in the United Kingdom were recruited from January 1, 2006, to October 31, 2010. Of the total sample of 502 682 partici
