“…The diagnostic criteria, clinical findings and preoperative examination It is described as high hyperopia, with anterior chamber depth (ACD) ≤2.2 mm [20] and AL≤20.0-21.0 mm [20][21][22][23] . It is also referred to as simple microphthalmos (sometimes pure microphthalmos or nanophthalmos [24] ), if not associated with other congenital ocular anomalies.…”

This narrative review aimed to have an algorithmic approach to microphthalmos by a systematic search. The definition can be related to a number of special phenotypes. In the more challenging cases of complex microphthalmos, relative anterior microphthalmos, and nanophthalmos, the surgeon can approach these cases more safely if they have a deep understanding of the anatomical variations and ideal formulae for intraocular lens computation and knows how to avoid intra- and post-operative complications. In this article, we review the criteria by which we recognize and describe pre-, intra-, and post-operative considerations, as well as discuss the ideal intraocular lenses for microphthalmos, given the intricate varieties of small eye phenotypes.
