• ciliary epithelia adhere to the lens
• separation of the apex-apex contact between the pigment and non-pigment cell layers of the ciliary epithelia at E16.5, however no impairment of the apicolateral junctions between the pigment epithelia or the apicolateral junctions between the non-pigment epithelia
