Rare Variants Residing in Novel Cis-Acting Element in Visual System Homeobox 1 and Their Contribution in the Pathogenesis of Keratoconus

(1) Background: The visual system homeobox 1 (VSX1) may contribute to the incidence of keratoconus (KC) in different populations. The present study investigated the role of VSX1 in autosomal recessive Pakistani families and sporadic KC patients using in silico analysis of the rare variants for the i...
