Too Tiny A Menace

Abstract

Microspherophakia is a rare congenital anomaly wherein the anteroposterior diameter of the lens is increased and equatorial diameter of the lens is decreased. The most common syndrome associated with microspherophakia is Weill Marchesani syndrome. The common ocular issues in microspherophakia are high lenticular myopia, ectopia lentis and secondary glaucoma. Lens removal with appropriate intraocular lens implantation addresses the ocular issues in microspherophakia
