Abstract:
A nine-year-old girl presented with a loss of vision in her left eye after minor head trauma one month prior to being seen. Ophthalmoscopy disclosed a complete retinal detachment with a giant tear. She also had serious orthopedic problems. Her father and brother had retinal detachment and joint diseases. The differential diagnosis is discussed and the diagnosis of Stickler's syndrome is made.
