Green List (high evidence)

Multiple families reported with LoF variants and variable features of syndromic microphthalmia.

Note other gene-disease associations have been postulated, but some are linked to missense variants and others to truncating variants, so mechanism may be different.

Previous reported gene disease association with microphthalmia with brain and digit anomalies (18252212, 21340693) (PMID 31053785: case study and review of literature, 5 probands mild to moderate intellectual disability presentation with large deletions and LoF AD variants in BMP4)

however PMID 34926457: suggest heterozygous BMP4 truncations contribute to pathologic myopia phenotype rather than microphthalmia.
Reports of association with Stickler syndrome, features of myopia (36140739, 30568244)
children with Stickler syndrome can have learning disabilities but are typically attributed to their vision and hearing impairments, unclear monogenic link (37107605)
