Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Ingrown eyelashes is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| NCAPG2non-SMC condensin II complex subunit G2 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| CREBBPCREB binding lysine acetyltransferase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| EP300EP300 lysine acetyltransferase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| GJB2gap junction protein beta 2 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
