ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To report two cases of Williams syndrome with ocular manifestations CASESUMMARY:
A 5-year-old boy who was diagnosed with Williams syndrome visited our hospital for ophthalmic examination. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in both eyes was 0.6. He had myopic astigmatism and 8 prism diopters of esotropia. Oval-shaped pupil with a stellate pattern of the iris and increased retinal vascular tortuosity were seen in both eyes. Another case of an 8-year-old boy with Williams syndrome also had myopia in both eyes. BCVA was 0.7 in the right eye and 0.4 in the left eye. A stellate pattern of the iris and increased retinal vascular tortuosity were also seen in both eyes.CONCLUSIONS:
Williams syndrome, deletion of 7q11.23, has ocular anomalies including a stellate pattern of the iris, refractive errors, amblyopia, and strabismus. Therefore, careful ophthalmic examination should be considered when children are diagnosed with Williams syndrome.
