Assumption-free estimation of the genetic contribution to refractive error across childhood [PDF]
, 2015 Purpose: Studies in relatives have generally yielded high heritability estimates for refractive error: twins 75–90%, families 15–70%. However, because related individuals often share a common environment, these estimates are inflated (via misallocation ...
