Abstract
Purpose of review: To review the neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS).
Recent findings: Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a rare genetic disorder with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 5000 individuals, but its true prevalence may be underestimated because of variable clinical presentations and limited awareness among healthcare professionals. The neuro-ophthalmic features of EDS may be difficult to recognize in context but new molecular genetic testing is now available for identification of specific subtypes of EDS.
Summary: Ophthalmic manifestations of EDS include loss of vision and double vision (strabismus), high myopia, retinal detachment, and blue sclera. The vascular subtype of EDS can present as a carotid-cavernous fistula, intracranial aneurysm, or arterial dissection.
