Ocular manifestations of Marfan syndrome in children and adolescents.

CONCLUSION: Iris transillumination defects and ectopia lentis are characteristic ocular findings in children and adolescents with Marfan syndrome. Myopia is more common and corneal curvature, central corneal thickness, and visual acuity are reduced in Marfan syndrome eyes. Children with Marfan syndrome need regular comprehensive eye examinations to identify potential complications. PMID: 29587526 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
