Keratan sulfate proteoglycans (KSPGs) are members of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family.
KSPGs, particularly keratocan, lumican, and mimecan, are important to the transparency of the cornea
Defects in KERA are the cause of the autosomal recessive cornea plana 2 (CNA2).
In CNA2, the forward convex curvature is flattened, leading to a decrease in refraction, reduced visual activity, extreme hyperopia (usually plus 10 d or more), hazy corneal limbus, opacities in the corneal parenchyma, and marked arcus senilis (often detected at an early age).
CNA2 is a rare disorder with a worldwide distribution, but a high prevalence in the Finnish population.
