Ocular Disorders and Treatments

This cluster of papers focuses on genetic and clinical studies related to ocular development, particularly microphthalmia, anophthalmia, and associated syndromes such as Fraser syndrome. It explores the genetic mutations in genes like SOX2 and BCOR, as well as the use of orbital implants in surgical management of eye malformations. The research also delves into epidermal adhesion and its role in ocular development.
