title: Congenital cataract in the right eye and primary clinical anophthalmos of the left eye in a patient with cerebellar hypoplasia.
abstract: We examined a 26-year-old man who had an opaque lens OD and clinical anophthalmos OS. Low densities in the left cerebellar hemisphere and vermis and dilated ventricles were noted on a computed tomographic scan of his brain. We believe that the association of developmental cataract OD, clinical anophthalmos OS, and cerebellar hypoplasia in our patient may be rare.
