A Novel H572R Mutation in the Transforming Growth Factor-β-Induced Gene in a Thai Family with Lattice Corneal Dystrophy Type I
To describe a large Thai family with lattice corneal dystrophy (LCD) type I and to determine whether this LCD is associated with mutations within the transforming growth factor-β-induced (TGFBI) gene.
