Alport syndrome (AS) is a rare genetic disease affecting type four collagen production, causing renal, auditory, and ophthalmic manifestations. This case report is about a 32-year-old male who was a known case of renal insufficiency and secondary hypertension and was referred to the ophthalmology department due to blurred vision. Based on the patient‘s history and ophthalmological findings, AS was diagnosed. Ophthalmic examination showed anterior lenticonus associated with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and impaired renal function. This clinical case report sheds light on the role of ophthalmology in diagnosing AS. Keywords: Collagen, Crystalline lens, Hereditary nephritis, Ophthalmology, Renal insufficiency, Sensorineural hearing loss
