| Titre | Corneal dystrophy in the Hallermann-Streiff syndrome |
| Abstract Nr. | P06 |
| But | We present six patients with typical Hallermann-Streiff syndrome. |
| Résultats | All have microphthalmia and were operated for congenital cataract . Three of the patients developed a severe glaucoma and one patient presented repeated uveal effusions. Five of our patients have the same pattern of corneal stromal opacities. The opacities are ill defined and bilateral; the stroma between the opacities is clear. The opacities are observed in two children about age 5 years old. Follow up of 10 years did not reveal a manifest increase of the lesions. |
| Conclusion | The authors believe that the corneal stromal dystrophy is a feature of the Hallermann-Streiff syndrome and they would excite ophthalmologists to look for this. |
