[Tilted syndrome]

The study displays a number of 27 cases with tilted syndrome. The cases developed peculiar ophthalmoscopic alterations, compound myopic astigmatism and superotemporal perimetric deficiencies. The perimetric deficiency was located at level of the isopters from the middle periphery and improved, to a certain extent, in perimetry with optical correction. The pathogenetic hypothesis of the syndrome are debated, granting a role to the closing default of the embryonic fissure.
