TitreCorneal dystrophy in the Hallermann-Streiff syndrome
Abstract Nr.P06
ButWe present six patients with typical Hallermann-Streiff syndrome.
RésultatsAll 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.

ConclusionThe authors believe that the corneal stromal dystrophy is a feature of the Hallermann-Streiff syndrome and they would excite ophthalmologists to look for this.
