Congenital Aniridia and the Ocular Surface
Ocular Surface, 2016 Aniridia is a congenital pan-ocular disorder caused by haplo-insufficiency of Pax6, a crucial gene for proper development of the eye. Aniridia affects a range of eye structures, including the cornea, iris, anterior chamber angle, lens, and fovea.

Aniridia (absence of iris) is a congenital, bilateral, uncommon panocular disorder. Whereas the occurrence of aniridia in the general population is 1:50000, it is present in about 1 in 70 patients with Wilm's tumor. This aniridia is sporadic and Wilm's tumor in these cases presents at an unusually early age.

Keratopathy in Congenital Aniridia
The Ocular Surface, 2003Although the most apparent clinical finding in aniridia is the absence of iris tissue, additional ocular structures are often affected. Mutations of the Pax 6 gene, which is important for eye development, have been identified in families with members affected by aniridia.

Aniridia: A Comparative Overview
American Orthoptic Journal, 2014Aniridia is linked to a mutation of the PAX6 gene, which results in panocular anomalies. A set of common secondary pathologies associated with aniridia is recognized. Much of the literature on aniridia focuses on genetic factors of the disorder and associated abnormalities, both ocular and nonocular. The field of research on the prevalence of pathology

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1979
Nineteen patients with aniridia and one patient with bilateral iris colobomata from eight families were examined for corneal abnormalities. Thirty-six eyes revealed changes that are consistent with a progressive corneal dystrophy. These changes begin in the corneal periphery in the early years of life and progress to the corneal center with increasing ...

Aniridia and congenital ptosis
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1975Congential ptosis associated with aniridia was found in 3 patients from 2 pedigrees. Nonsurgical aphakia, a condition not previously reported in association with aniridia, was also found in one case. The association of aniridia and congenital ptosis is suggested as evidence for the common mesodermal etiology of both anomalies.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2010
In the past years, several new options have been developed for the surgical management of aniridia in the course of cataract surgery.The lens capsule may be altered - thinned - in aniridia, requiring particular attention in order to avoid complications with possible consequences for the surgical plan.
