Nature and cause of bilateral ocular dermoids were investigated by field studies, pedigree analysis, clinical examination, light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. It was determined that ocular dermoids in Hereford cattle are a genetically transmitted defect; characteristics of autosomal recessive and polygenic inheritance were observed. Calves typically were affected bilaterally with multiple, connected ocular growths that clinically, histologically, and ultrastructurally mimicked normal haired skin. Sites most commonly involved included ventro-lateral limbus, third eyelid, medial canthus, eyelid and conjunctiva. Centro-corneal and anterior segmental dermoids also were observed.
通过实地研究、系谱分析、临床检查、光学显微镜检查、扫描电子显微镜检查和透射电子显微镜检查，对双侧眼皮样囊肿的性质和病因进行了调查。结果确定，赫里福德牛的眼皮样囊肿是一种遗传传递缺陷；观察到常染色体隐性遗传和多基因遗传的特征。犊牛通常双侧受累，有多个相连的眼部肿物，在临床、组织学和超微结构上与正常有毛皮肤相似。最常受累的部位包括腹外侧角膜缘、第三眼睑、内眦、眼睑和结膜。还观察到中央角膜和前段皮样囊肿。
