Development of cataract in Pcbd1^tm1Grc/Pcbd1^tm1Grc mice. A: Pcbd1^tm1Grc/Pcbd1^tm1Grc (DCoH -/-) mouse showing unilateral lens opacity. B: Plot displaying the frequency of first visual observation of cataract in mutant mice in age intervals up to 1 year. C: Section of a mutant mouse with posterior cortical cataract (right) and a Pcbd1^tm1Grc/Pcbd1⁺ mouse of similar age with a healthy eye (left). Transverse sections of paraffin-embedded tissue were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Note the vacuoles visible in the iris and the Morgagnian granules of degraded and fluid filled lens tissue underlying the posterior capsule.
