Keywords:
Moebius syndrome, Eye abnormalities.Abstract
In 1880 Von Graefe and Saemish grouped some patients with infrequent non progressive congenital disorders in facial region which was later described by Julius Moebius in 1888, as a Moebius syndrome, defined as “congenital paralysis” of the nucleus of the 6th cranial nerves, 7th external motor ocular nerve, facial and other cranial nerves as: 12th, 3rd hypoglossal, common motor ocular which clinical spectrum is variable; other cranial nerves are affected and it is associated with multiple malformations. Clinical and Ophthalmologic characteristics of a female patient who was diagnosed with this genetic syndrome were presented. As this is a very rare condition, many patients were condemned to be treated as mentally handicapped, where social support is indispensable for both patients and families.Downloads
