Anophthalmia and microphthalmia are often used interchangeably. Microphthalmia is a disorder in which one or both eyes are abnormally small, while anophthalmia is the absence of one or both eyes. These rare disorders develop during pregnancy and can be associated with other birth defects. Microphthalmia and multiple congenital ocular anomalies: Microphthalmia is a birth defect in which one or both eyes are smaller than normal , leading to a restricted field of vision. Microphthalmic eyes are considered to be a fault by many breed clubs. While microphthalmia itself is not particularly harmful, it is often found associated with more severe eye defects such as coloboma, retinal dysplasia, and cataracts.

Eye Condition Fact Sheets
What is Microphthalmia?
Microphthalmia is commonly called 'small eye syndrome'. Most children born with this condition are affected in one eye. The eye is obviously reduced in size, and according to statistics, is blind with no vision at all. However it has been known for children who have bilateral microphthalmia to have some vision. It is suspected that a fungicide, "Benomyl", which is still used on fruit and vegetable crops has been linked to cases of micro and anophthalmia. It is yet to be conclusively determined is whether the chemical interferes with the development of the eyes in children whose mothers are exposed to the chemical during pregnancy. Where can I get more advice? If you need advice on treatment options it is best to speak to an ophthalmologist (eye surgeon) rather than your regular family doctor or local optometrist.

Anophthalmia and Microphthalmia Options The search for an answer
Being born without eyes, the condition termed anophthalmia, has recently hit the headlines again. Pam Henderson, Peripatetic teacher in Lincolnshire, gives some background to the condition and describes her own involvement with parents and the media over the years. Seven years ago, I began to be concerned about the numbers of visually impaired children in the rural areas of Lincolnshire. I collated information and statistics and began to try to construct common factors between the children affected. In 1993, Mike Paduano, a reporter from the Observer newspaper in London heard of my concerns and the support group which I had formed in this region called VIPS (Visually Impaired and Parents Support). This is a group for all visually impaired children and their families - amongst whom were those with microphthalmia and anophthalmia. I was faxed an extract of a report about a piece of research carried out in the USA indicating that rats, heavily exposed to a particular fungicide, produced offspring which were either anophthalmic, microphthalmic or who had other eye abnormalities. After reading this, I questioned whether children in Lincolnshire could have been similarly affected due to exposure to a chemical. The same fungicide as that mentioned in the extract was, and still could be, used by farmers on agricultural or fruit crops. Indeed one of the parents, a farmer, had well recorded evidence of when he himself had used this particular fungicide. At meetings, finding conception dates from a room full of parents has caused considerable humour! I had very soon discovered that birth dates were of little relevance as not all the children had been born full term.

General Discussion Lenz Microphthalmia Syndrome is an extremely rare inherited disorder characterized by abnormal smallness of one or both eyes (unilateral or bilateral microphthalmos) and/or droopy eyelids (blepharoptosis), resulting in visual impairment. In rare cases, affected infants may exhibit complete absence of the eyes (anophthalmia). Most affected infants also exhibit developmental delay and mental retardation, ranging from mild to severe. Additional physical abnormalities are often associated with this disorder such as an unusually small head (microcephaly) and/or malformations of the teeth, ears, and/or fingers and/or toes (digits). The range and severity of findings may vary from case to case.
