Anterior segments of the mother. (Left column for the right eye and right column for the left eye.)

A-B. Bilateral microcornea (10*10mm) and corneal scleralization was presented. Both of the pupils were irregular-shaped and displaced superiorly and nasally. Texture of the temporal iris was sparse in both of her eyes. C-F. Bilateral opacity could be observed in the central posterior capsule and the cortex beneath it. G-H. Dense comb-like iris roots stretching beyond the scleral spurs and inserting anterior to the Schwalbe line could be observed by gonioscopy in both eyes. Only mild pigment was revealed. I-J. UBM showed open anterior chamber angle, vague definition of the ciliary processes, and normal location of the lens. The scleral spurs were covered with high-echo tissue, which was consistent with the dense comb-like iris roots revealed by gonioscopy
