Purpose: To examine lens phenotypic characteristics in βA3ΔG91 mice and determine if βA3ΔG91 affects autophagy in the lens.

Methods: We generated a βA3ΔG91 mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 methodology. Comparative phenotypic and biochemical characterizations of lenses from postnatal day 0 (P0), P15, and 1-month-old βA3ΔG91 and wild-type (WT) mice were performed.
