Abstract
Congenital anophthalmos and microphthalmos are rare conditions which can have associated pathology in the second eye and/or systemic anomalies. A retrospective review of 77 patients with congenital anophthalmos or microphthalmos seen at Moorfields Eye Hospital over a 13 year period was performed. A detailed description of the ocular and systemic anomalies present in our series of patients is given, and the current understanding of the pathogenesis of congenital anophthalmos and microphthalmos is reviewed.Keywords
