Abstract
The Asian Eye Genetics Consortium (AEGC, http://asianeyegenetics.org) was established in 2014 to focus on genetic eye research in Asia, the most populated region of the world where limited data are available on genetic variation in eye diseases. The consortium has brought a collective thinking and ideas from the researchers around the world who have interest in genetic eye research in the Asian region. Over 100 eye researchers from eye institutions and hospitals from more than 20 countries including Australia, Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Israel, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Pakistan, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, the UAE, and the USA are now participating in the collaborative research and discussion. The current AEGC collaborations include interacting and collaborating to develop programs to share, catalogue, and research work to identify the genetic aspects of eye diseases in Asia.
