Table 3. Results from ophthalmic investigations of family members affected by autosomal dominant congenital cataract

"Age (years)" column indicates the age when ocular measurements were recorded. In the "Age at cataract operation (years)" column, the asterisk indicates that cataract surgery has not been carried out. Lens phenotypes were documented by dilated slit lamp examination. In Family 1, individuals II:1, III:2, 3, IV:3, and 4 had horizontal and pendular nystagmus. Moreover, strabismus were also observed in individuals II:1, III:3, IV:3, and 4. Abbreviations are: BCV, best corrected vision; and FC, finger count/30 cm.
