abnormal lens morphology ( J:142446 )
• levels of sorbitol in the lens of 2 month old mice are very high (4.18 nmol/mg nmol/mg vs. 0.17 nmol/mg for wild-type)
cataract ( J:142446 )
• 5% of mice develop cataracts around 6 months of age
• 13 months after birth, rate of cataract incidence increases
• by 17 months of age, 69% of mice have cataracts
