Chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome associated with refractive errors, strabismus
Refractive errors and strabismus are common in children with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, but serious ocular involvement is uncommon. The prospective study included 16 patients between 4 months old and 18 years old with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. The patient cohort underwent uncorrected and best corrected visual acuity testing; stereoscopic vision, biomicroscopic and indirect fundus examinations; and ocular motility testing.
