Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin microphthalmos.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin microphthalmos (1713 (in B. Castelli Lexicon Medicum) or earlier) < ancient Greek μικρόϕθαλμος small-eyed < μικρο- micro- comb. form + ancient Greek ὀϕθαλμός eye (see ophthalmo- comb. form). Compare earlier microphthalmy n., and buphthalmos n., lagophthalmus n.

1845 Dublin Jrnl. Med. Sci. 27 29 Microphthalmus is the term applied by continental writers to that peculiar condition of the eye, when there appears to be an arrest of development of this organ at some particular period of its growth, without either atrophy or disease.

1901 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) B. 194 53 This congenital defect [sc. persistent hyaloid artery]..is found almost invariably in imperfectly developed eyes (microphthalmos).

1934 Arch. Ophthalmol. 11 516 It is justifiable to consider the two forms of microphthalmos as one genetic entity with the morphologic distinction between microphthalmos with external, or orbital, cysts and microphthalmos with intraocular cysts.

1971 Amer. Jrnl. Ophthalmol. 71 1128/1 In colobomatous microphthalmos, the pathogenesis of the small eye is related to faulty closure of the embryonic fissure.
