Patient's question:
Zunyi Shikang Eye HospitalDoctor's answer:
Hello, due to genetic and environmental factors, any error in any stage of eye development can lead to abnormal eye development, causing congenital eye malformations. The main factors of congenital anophthalmia include: 1. Genetic factors, such as chromosomal abnormalities that can cause congenital anophthalmia or microphthalmia; 2. Environmental factors, such as certain viral infections in the early stages of pregnancy, which can cause the embryo to develop anophthalmia or microphthalmia. In the early stages of embryonic development, if the formation of the optic groove or optic vesicle is impaired, it can result in congenital anophthalmia. If you experience discomfort during pregnancy, it is recommended to seek timely medical examination.
