Smarce1 and Tensin 4 Are Putative Modulators of Corneoscleral Stiffness

The biomechanical properties of the cornea and sclera are important in the onset and progression of multiple ocular pathologies and vary substantially between individuals, yet the source of this variation remains unknown. Here we identify genes putatively regulating corneoscleral biomechanical tissu...
