Anatomical calcification of short eyes Carricondo PC, Andrade T, Prasov L, Ayres BM, Moroi SE. Nanophthalmos : A Review of the Clinical Spectrum and Genetics . J Ophthalmol . 2018 May 9;2018:2735465. doi : 10.1155/2018/2735465. PMID: 29862063; PMCID: PMC5971257.
Anophthalmia Absence of the eye Simple microphthalmos Short axial length due to global eye reduction with no other findings Complex microphthalmos Short axial length due to global eye reduction and associated ocular malformations (e.g., colobomas, persistent fetal vasculature, retinal dysplasia) Relative anterior microphthalmos Short axial length due to reduced anterior chamber dimension only, with normal posterior segment dimension and normal scleral thickness Posterior microphthalmos Short axial length due to reduced posterior segment dimension with normal anterior chamber dimensions Nanophthalmos Short axial length due to small anterior and posterior segments with thickened choroid and sclera and normal lens volume The clinical spectrum of the small eye phenotype.
Duke-Elder in 1964 described 3 categories… Simple microphtalmos ( nanophtalmos ) Short eye no morphologyc anomalies Colobomatous microphtalmos Incomplete closure of embryonic fissure Complex microphtalmos Systemic animalities and other anomalies of the eye Cataract Surgery, 3rd Edition PART V – Special Techniques for Cataract Extraction Chapter 33 – Nanophthalmos , Relative Anterior Microphthalmos, and Axial Hyperopia
Nanophthalmos (Simple Microphthalmos) Axial length ( reduction of 2 standard deviations) < 20.5 mm No systemic or other ocular morphologic abnormalities Atosomal Recessive chromosome 11 five genes (i.e., MFRP, TMEM98, PRSS56, BEST1, and CRB1) and two loci have been implicated in familial forms of nanophthalmos . Poor visual acuity related to a high refractive error Wu et al. considered shallow anterior chamber, high hyperopia, axial length up to 21 mm, and posterior wall thickness greater than 1.7 mm as conditions to define nanophthalmic eyes Cataract Surgery, 3rd Edition PART V – Special Techniques for Cataract Extraction Chapter 33 – Nanophthalmos , Relative Anterior Microphthalmos, and Axial Hyperopia

Collagen fibers Variations in the size of collagen fibers [23,][27,][28] Increased fraying and splitting of collagen fibers [23] Disordered lamellar arrangement of collagen bundles [22,][29] Extracellular matrix Glycosaminoglycan deposits [22–24] Increased fibronectin content [28]
