Dr. Chen's team has conducted studies related to keratoconus etiology, finding two new variants and three high-risk SNP of VSX1 gene, which enlarged the mutation spectrum, further confirmed the trait of genetically heterozygous and provided new breakthrough for pathogenesis and theoretical foundation for early diagnosis and targeted therapy in Chinese keratoconus patients.
