Other genes such as CAST, DOCK9, IL1RN, SLC4A11, HGF, TGFBI, ZNF469, ZEB1, and
VSX1 have been studied and involved in the possible genetic element of keratoconus [5, 6].

VSX1 geninin heterozigot mutasyonlari keratokonusun bir nedeni olarak gorulebilmektedir.
Keratokonuslu bir ailenin uc neslinin takibinde VSX1 geninin D144E mutasyonu gorulmustur.
Keratokonus bulunan 18 ailede yapilan arastirmada VSX1 ve SOD1'in olasi hastalik yapan genler olarak tespit edilmis ve 13q32'ya yakin keratokonus icin sorumlu olabilecek bir gen tespit edilmistir.
Daha onceki yayinlarda keratokonus ile ilgili oldugu dusunulen VSX1 gen mutasyonlarinin keratokonus ile baglantili olmadigi gosterilmistir.
