Slit-lamp findings in 2 patients with PHARC syndrome. (A,B) Slit-lamp photographs of the right eye of patient J-13 at the age of 17. Best-corrected visual acuity was 20/50 Snellen in this eye. Direct illumination demonstrated the presence of cataract in the posterior surface of the lens. Retroillumination revealed that the observed opacity followed a star-shaped distribution, which seemed to delineate the crystalline lens sutures of the posterior cortex. (C,D) The right eye of patient L-15 (age 37) showed opacities in both the anterior and posterior cortex. Best-corrected visual acuity was 20/100 during this visit. Retroillumination showed anterior cortical cataract and a star-shaped opacity in the posterior surface.
