Abstract
The following article is an attempt to summarise the recent genetic findings in chromosome 5q31 corneal dystrophies. It also shows the remarkable correlation between genotype and phenotype characterising them. Basically, 6 main heterozygote mutations are responsible for 6 different phenotypes, corresponding to the following 4 histologic forms of corneal deposits: a) amyloid or lattice, b) granular, c) amyloid or lattice and granular, d) non-amyloid and non-granular (fibrous).
