OMIA:002599-9615 : Iris sphincter dysplasia in Canis lupus familiaris (dog)

Categories: Vision / eye phene

Single-gene trait/disorder: unknown

Disease-related: yes

Species-specific symbol: ISD

Species-specific description: Genetics Committee of the American College of Veterinary Opthalmologists 2015): "Defective development of the iris, or part of the iris, resulting in an immature state. ISD [Iris sphincter dysplasia] is the result of poorly developed iris sphincter muscles. The pupils of dogs with ISD do not properly contract in bright light. Dogs usually are uncomfortable and often squint in sunlight. The disorder exposes the interior of the eye to ultraviolet light that may potentially cause serious vision problems, such as cataracts or retinal damage, as dogs age."

Breed: Dalmatian (Dog) (VBO_0200427).
Breeds in which the phene has been documented. (If a likely causal variant has been documented for the phene, see the variant table breeds in which the variant has been reported).
