Abstract:
The etiology of eye malformations is complex and includes environmental and genetic factors. Identifying the etiology of an eye malformation is very important for the counseling and management of these patients. This case report illustrates the complexity in diagnosing apparently isolated ophthalmic anomalies, and the power of genetic evaluation in establishing the prognosis.
