Foveal hypoplasia-presenile cataract syndrome/O'Donnell-Pappas syndrome is distinguished by the invariable presence of presenile cataracts everywhere that it is defined, while foveal hypoplasia 1 is defined by OMIM as a having a lack of aniridia. This suggests that O'Donnell-Pappas syndrome is a subset of FVH1, which idea is supported by Orphanets NTBT relationship to OMIM.
O'Donnell-Pappas syndrome isn't specific enough in my opinion to merit its own disease at this time (in the same way FHONDA syndrome is not sufficiently different from FVH2, #1283).

O'Donnell and Pappas (1982) described a family in which 7 persons over 4 generations had mild foveal hypoplasia, presenile cataract (onset before age 40 years), and peripheral corneal pannus. There were 2 instances of male-to-male transmission, suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance. Corneal pannus was described as 'a small peripheral margin of pannus, about 1 mm in width, for 360 degrees.
