Anophthalmia

Anophthalmia is a medical term that is used to describe the absence of the globe and ocular (eye) tissue from the orbit.  The terms Anophthalmia and Microphthalmia(A/M) (small eyes) are often used interchangeably since CT scans or MRI show some remnants of either the globe or surrounding tissue in most cases. Anophthalmia/Microphthalmia (A/M) may affect one eye with the other eye being normal, or both eyes, resulting in blindness.
