Cataract surgery with autosomal recessive cornea plana caused by a novel KERA mutation

Using protein modelling, a novel <i>KERA</i> mutation initially classified as variant of uncertain significance, could be identified as potentially pathogeneic. Biometry and cataract surgery in patients with corneal plana are challenging; however, a toric intraocular lens improves visual acuity.

Abstract

Using protein modelling, a novel <i>KERA</i> mutation initially classified as variant of uncertain significance, could be identified as potentially pathogeneic. Biometry and cataract surgery in patients with corneal plana are challenging; however, a toric intraocular lens improves visual acuity.
