a small bony orbit, a constricted mucosal socket, short eyelids, reduced palpebral
fissure and malar prominence. Genetic mutations, chromosomal abnormalities, and prenatal
environment can all cause anophthalmia. Anophthalmia is an extremely rare disease
and is mostly rooted in genetic abnormalities.;
