Summary

This study looks at how genes and symptoms are linked in Fuchs' corneal endothelial dystrophy, a common eye disease that affects the cornea. Researchers will analyze DNA from 500 people who need cornea surgery to find patterns that may explain why the disease looks different in different people. The goal is to better understand the disease, not to test a new treatment.
