A recurrent variant in LIM2 causes an isolated congenital sutural/lamellar cataract in a Japanese family.

We report a variant in LIM2 causing an isolated autosomal-dominant congenital sutural/lamellar cataract in a Japanese family. This is the first report of a LIM2 variant in the Japanese population. Hence, we expand the mutation spectrum of LIM2 variants in different ethnic groups.
