According to this wisdom from Goethe the ophthalmologist,too always has a differentialdiagnostic challenge of anophthalmological disease.

This is also true of the various forms of corneal dystrophies.

In the last 10 years there are many important and interesting DNA examinations in nearly all forms of corneal dystrophies.

I'll give you 2 examples:

1. There are several reports about many mutations of Lattice corneal dystrophy, type I

2. From Japan we recognize two papers about the homozygote forms of Granular corneal dystrophy, type I and type II

We propose to constitute an international commission under the auspices of ISGED to elaborate an international accepted clinical classification of corneal dystrophies.

We propose the following colleagues alphabetically:

Every 2 years the commission has to update the classification of corneal dystrophies.

It would be desirable if finally in the future in the renowned international ophthalmologic and genetic journals a uniform and unmistakable nomenclature for corneal dystrophies could be used incorporating the proposal of the ISGED commission for corneal dystrophies classification.
