Duane's Retraction Syndrome with dry eye

ABSTRACT

To report a case of Duane's retraction syndrome with dry eye.An 18-year-old girl presented with chief complaint of limited abduction in her right eye. Best corrected visual acuity was OD 8/10 and OS 9/10. Ocular motility examination revealed severe abduction limitation [-4], mild adduction limitation [-I], and moderate upshoot and mild downshoot in the right eye on adduction. The patient stated absence of lacrimation during crying in the right eye. Schirmer and basic tear secretion tests revealed dry eye.The same teratogenic factor that induced Duane's syndrome could cause impaired lacrimal gland secretion and dry eye symptoms
