Isolated microcornea is a very rarely-described condition of reduced cornea size (less than 11 mm horizontal diameter) in an individual without other significant ocular (or systemic) findings. This case report describes the biometric features of a boy with isolated microcornea (the youngest and most completely described patient to the best of our knowledge) and suggests that the condition is the same entity as relative anterior microphthalmos.
孤立性小角膜是一种非常罕见的病症,指个体角膜尺寸减小(水平直径小于11毫米)且无其他明显眼部(或全身)病变。本病例报告描述了一名患有孤立性小角膜男孩的生物测量特征(据我们所知,这是最年轻且描述最完整的患者),并表明该病症与相对性前部小眼球是同一实体。
