Traboulsi Syndrome in Pakistan.

ABSTRACT

Traboulsi syndrome is characterised by facial dysmorphism, abnormal spontaneous filtering blebs, ectopia lentis and multiple anterior segment abnormalities. The constellation of abnormalities separate it from syndromes related to connective tissue abnormalities which are associated with ectopia lentis. We report five females with distinctive spontaneous filtering blebs, ectopia lentis and other anterior segment abnormalities and no systemic features other than flat cheeks and beaking of nose. The cases are being managed conservatively in the Cornea and Glaucoma departments of Al-Shifa Trust Eye Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
