To investigate the effect of the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) gene's rs6214 and rs5742632 polymorphisms on IGF-1 expression levels and their association with different types of myopia in Egyptian patients.
We investigated whether the IGF-1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs6214, rs10860860, and rs2946834 are associated with HM (≤-6.0 diopters [D]) and any myopia (≤-0.5 D) phenotype in Polish families.
