Abstract

Classic lattice corneal dystrophy (classic LCD, lattice corneal dystrophy type 1) is an autosomal dominantly inherited epithelial-stromal corneal dystrophy associated with an R124C (Arg124Cys) mutation in the TGFBI gene on chromosome 5q31. Lattice dystrophy of the cornea was first described by Biber (1890) and by Haab (1899) and Dimmer (1899). Classic LCD has also been known as Biber-Haab-Dimmer dystrophy.
