ABSTRACT
@#Cataract is a kind of eye disease that causes lens metabolic disorder and protein degeneration and turbidity due to various reasons. Congenital cataract is especially serious. It is a common eye disease that affects the visual development of infants. It can inhibit the development of visual pathway and cause permanent blindness. About one-third of the cases are genetically related, of which autosomal dominant inheritance is the most common genetic mode. It's occurrence and development may be related to genes involved in lens development. Up to now, hundreds of mutation sites in more than 40 genes have been found to be associated with congenital cataract. This article will review the genetic research progress of congenital cataract.
