Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To biometrically and molecularly characterize clinically diagnosed posterior microphthalmos. DESIGN: Prospective case series. METHODS: Twenty-five affected patients from 13 families diagnosed by ophthalmologists experienced with the condition at the King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital were studied. All participants underwent axial length measurement, keratometry, corneal pachymetry, and candidate gene...
