title: [Molecular genetics of development of cornea].
abstract: This paper mainly reviews sources discussed in recent years that are devoted to the genetics of corneal development. Genetically caused separation processes of corneal bud and its specification and differentiation are considered. It is shown that mutation disorders in the genes responsible for differentiation of the cornea can lead to different forms of dystrophies and other corneal disorders.
