    Area of Science:

    • Genetics and developmental biology
    • Ophthalmology
    • Pediatrics

    Background:

    • Peters' anomaly is a rare congenital eye disorder.
    • Associated systemic features can include short stature and intellectual disability.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the clinical presentation of 11 patients with Peters' anomaly and associated anomalies.
    • To highlight the variable severity and potential lethality of this condition.

    Main Methods:

    • Case series presentation.
    • Clinical data collection and review.

    Main Results:

    • Eleven patients presented with Peters' anomaly, short stature, brachymorphy, mental retardation, abnormal ears, and cleft lip/palate.
  • The condition exhibited a spectrum of severity, ranging from mild to fetal lethality.
  • Conclusions:

    • Peters' anomaly can be part of a complex syndrome with significant systemic implications.
    • Early recognition and management are crucial due to the potential for severe outcomes.
