Clinical Description OMIM Peters anomaly consists of a central corneal leukoma, absence of the posterior corneal stroma and Descemet membrane, and a variable degree of iris and lenticular attachments to the central aspect of the posterior cornea (Peters, 1906). It occurs ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In a family with dominantly inherited anterior segment malformations with variable expression, including typical Peters anomaly, Hanson et al. (1994) identified a mutation in the PAX6 gene (607108.0004). Two family members had a phenotype that most closely resembled ...
