CATARACT 24; CTRCT24

Alternate names

CATARACT 24; CTRCT24 Is also known as cataract, anterior polar, 2, ctaa2, cataract 24, anterior polar

Description

Anterior polar cataracts are small opacities on the anterior surface of the lens. They usually do not interfere with vision (Moross et al., 1984).The preferred title/symbol of this entry was formerly 'Cataract, Anterior Polar, 2; CTAA2.'

Most common symptoms of CATARACT 24; CTRCT24

  • Cataract
  • Amblyopia
  • Anterior polar cataract

CATARACT 9, MULTIPLE TYPES; CTRCT9

Alternate names

CATARACT 9, MULTIPLE TYPES; CTRCT9 Is also known as cataract, autosomal recessive congenital 1, cataract, autosomal dominant, catc1, cataract 9, multiple types, with or without microcornea

Description

Mutations in the CRYAA gene have been found to cause multiple types of cataract, which have been described as nuclear, zonular central nuclear, laminar, lamellar, anterior polar, posterior polar, cortical, embryonal, anterior subcapsular, fan-shaped, and total. Cataract associated with microcornea, sometimes called the cataract-microcornea syndrome, is also caused by mutation in the CRYAA gene. Both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive modes of inheritance have been reported. The symbol CATC1 was formerly used for the autosomal recessive form of cataract caused by mutation in the CRYAA gene.

Most common symptoms of CATARACT 9, MULTIPLE TYPES; CTRCT9

  • Intellectual disability
  • Nystagmus
  • Strabismus
  • Cataract
  • Visual impairment

TOTAL EARLY-ONSET CATARACT

Alternate names

TOTAL EARLY-ONSET CATARACT Is also known as cataract, congenital, x-linked, cataract, congenital total, with posterior sutural opacities in heterozygotes, cxn, cct, cataract 40 with or without microcornea

Most common symptoms of TOTAL EARLY-ONSET CATARACT

  • Cataract
  • Visual impairment
  • Ventricular septal defect
  • Microphthalmia
  • Patent ductus arteriosus

CATARACT-MICROCORNEA SYNDROME

Description

Cataract-microcornea syndrome is characterized by the association of congenital cataract and microcornea without any other systemic anomaly or dysmorphism.

Most common symptoms of CATARACT-MICROCORNEA SYNDROME

  • Nystagmus
  • Cataract
  • Myopia
  • Corneal opacity
  • Iris coloboma
