Ocular shape of cataract with retinitis pigmentosa: case-control study
Cataracts with RP demonstrated centripetal swelling of the lens, centrifugal corneal thinning, and AL shortening. A decrease in tension between the lens and eyeball wall because of zonular weakness in the RP may lead to swelling of the lens and horizontal flattening of the eyeball.
