Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary To calculate the prevalence of Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (CTX) in a patient population diagnosed up to age 21 with early-onset idiopathic bilateral cataracts (by blood draw where plasma cholenstanol levels and/or urine bile alcohol results will be used to determine whether genetic testing is indicated. Genetic Testing, if indicated, will be used to determine the prevalence of CTX) 8 weeks
Secondary To assess other manifestations of CTX within patients presenting with idiopathic bilateral cataracts. Based on a patient reported, CTX disease-specific medical history for the patients diagnosed with CTX, the manifestations and symptoms related to the disease will be presented by body system. 8 weeks
