Best Answer

Fuchs' dystrophy can be inherited, which means it can be passed down from parents to children. In some famalies, it is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. That means that if either of your parents have has the disease, you have a 50% chance of developing the condition.


However, the condition may also occur in persons without a known family history of the disease.
