Oculoauricular syndrome (OCACS) is characterized by complex ocular anomalies, including congenital cataract, anterior segment dysgenesis, iris coloboma, and early-onset retinal dystrophy, and dysplastic ears with abnormal external ear cartilage (summary by Gillespie et al., 2015).

Intellectual developmental disorder with ocular anomalies and distinctive facial features (IDDOF) is characterized by global developmental delay, mildly impaired intellectual development, ophthalmologic anomalies, microcephaly or relative microcephaly, hearing loss, and characteristic facial features (Huang et al., 2022).
