Brittle cornea syndrome (BCS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by corneal thinning and fragility, leading to corneal rupture, the main hallmark of this disorder. Non-ocular symptoms include hearing loss, but also signs of connective tissue fragility, placing it in the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) spectrum.
