PURPOSE. The CTNND2 gene is located in the linkage interval of high myopia locus MYP16 and two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs6885224 and rs12716080) in CTNND2 were recently shown to associate with high myopia. This study evaluated such associations in an independent case-control series.METHODS. A total of 2773 unrelated individuals were enrolled in this study, including 1203 subjects with high myopia (spherical refraction at each meridian
