Abstract:

Marfan syndrome is an orphan disease that is caused by a mutation in the FBN1 gene located on chromosome 15 (15q21.1) and is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. The article reviews the results of studies concerning the potential ocular manifestations of Marfan syndrome.

Keywords:

Marfan syndrome
ciliary zonule
ectopia lentis
induced myopia
