The Phenotypic and Genotypic Features of ADAMTSL4‐Related Ocular Disease
ADAMTSL4‐related ocular disease tends to present at a younger age and be associated with higher myopia than other forms of ectopia lentis (such as FBN1). A previously reported 20‐bp deletion (c.767_786del) was highly prevalent in this cohort (23/32), and all ectopia lentis et pupillae cases carried this variant. ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in ADAMTSL4

However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal
