Table 1. Clinical data on family with cataract and microcornea

In the "Snellen visual acuity" column, persons who could not be assessed with the Snellen scale were categorized as count fingers at 3 m (CF), sees hand motions (HM), or light perception (LP). The "Age" column indicates the age when ocular measurements were recorded. Individual II-4 had axial length measurements carried out preoperatively at age 32 (microphthalmos is defined as an axial length <18.5 mm). In individual III-8, axial length measurements were taken at 4 weeks of age; the normal axial length for a neonate of this age is 16.7-17.6. All axial length and corneal diameter measurements were in mm.
