Corneal decompensation in recessive cornea plana.

Ophthalmic genetics - 1 Sept 2009

Khan Arif O, Aldahmesh Mohammed A, Al-Gehedan Saeed, Meyer Brian F, Meyer Brain F, Alkuraya Fowzan S

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To report corneal decompensation in 3 patients with recessive cornea plana. METHODS: Retrospective case series. RESULTS: An adult and two children (all unrelated) with clinical recessive cornea plana had gradual decrease in vision. Ophthalmic examination revealed corneal decompensation (stromal thickening and haze without epithelial changes) in the 3 patients. Diagnostic DNA sequencing revealed...
