Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Anophthalmia/microphthalmia (A/M) is a severe congenital ocular malformation characterized by the complete absence or small size of the eye bulb. Interpreting copy number variations (CNVs) in A/M is challenged by variable genotype-phenotype correlations and reduced penetrance. This study investigated the genetic etiology of A/M-associated CNVs. METHODS: Genomic profiling was performed on four...
