Definition: |
Spherophakia is a rare congenital condition that presents with weak zonules around a smaller and more spherical crystalline lens with an increased anteroposterior thickness of the lens, and highly myopic eye. The lens zonules are developmentally hypoplastic and abnormally weak and due to non-attachment of the posterior zonules to the equatorial zone of the lens, the lens changes its normal shape to spherical. |
