Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To assess for gammaD-crystallin (CRYGD) mutation in 2 Saudi patients with cerulean cataract and in a brother of one of the patients who had coralliform cataract. METHODS: Patients and all of their available relatives underwent ophthalmic examination and subsequent sequencing of the candidate gene CRYGD. RESULTS: In the first family, a 4-year-old boy with bilateral cerulean cataract and his 6-year-old...
