Phenotypic variability in Meesmann's dystrophy: clinical review of the literature and presentation of a family genetically identical to the original family.

Acta ophthalmologica - 1 Feb 2008

Ehlers Niels, Hjortdal Jesper, Nielsen Kim, Thiel H-J, Ørntoft Torben

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To describe the phenotypic variability in Meesmann's microcystic dystrophy of the corneal epithelium based on a review of the literature and the presentation of a Danish family. METHODS: We carried out a clinical examination of the family and genetic sequencing of DNA. RESULTS: Subjectiv...
