Ocular Signs in Marfan Syndrome: A Case Report

Herein, we present a case of 12-year-old male with ocular features of Marfan Syndrome. This case is of a twelve-year-old Filipino male seen in our institution with a five-year history of blurred vision. Ocular examination revealed poor visual acuity, high myopia, and ectopia lentis. Systemic examination revealed pectus carinatum, hypermobile joints, and arachnodactyly. There was high suspicion for Marfan Syndrome and the patient was subsequently referred to Pediatrics for further evaluation and management, where diagnosis was confirmed. This report stresses that a multidisciplinary approach is essential in the management of Marfan syndrome to improve vision and prevent complications, both ocular and systemic, brought about by the disease process.
