Furthermore, the p.G948W mutation was linked with posterior polar cataracts, which most resemble age-related posterior sub-capsular cataracts, whereas, EPHA2 SNPs were associated with much more prevalent forms of age-related cataracts, in decreasing order of significance; cortical opacities > any opacities > nuclear opacities. This evidence concerns the gene EPHA2 and Age-related cataract.
