Abstract:

Fetal eye abnormalities are a type of rare diseases, which are always difficult to diagnose. Prenatal ultrasound has many advantages, such as convenient, non-invasive and good repeatability. In recent years, many specialists have reported some fetal eye abnormalities detected by prenatal ultrasound, such as congenital cataract, anophthalmia or microphthalmia, persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous. Prenatal ultrasound can visually display the ocular structure of fetus in different gestational age, showing clinical value for  diagnosis of fetal eye abnormalities.  (Int Rev Ophthalmol, 2015, 39：152-155)
