Purpose: Ocular features of Alport syndrome include anterior lenticonus, posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy, and fleck-and-dot retinopathy in most cases. Keratoconus in such patients has been rarely mentioned in previous studies. To our knowledge, this is the first report of corneal cross-linking for halting the progression of keratoconus in a patient with Alport syndrome. Case report: A 22-year-old male was referred for his initial corneal topography, after he was already prescribed with rigid gas-permeable contact lenses. Alport syndrome was diagnosed in his infancy and gene COL4A5 mutation was confirmed. Ophthalmological evaluation confirmed keratoconus. One-year follow-up showed a progression on his right eye and standard corneal cross-linking was performed. Stabilization of the disease marked by normalization in visual function and corneal tomography values was noticed 1 year after the procedure. Conclusions: When diagnosing ocular clinical findings of Alport syndrome, keratoconus should be considered. Standard corneal cross-linking protocol can halt its progression.

History Of

Granular – lattice (Avellino) corneal dystrophy is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion which affects stroma of the cornea with recurrent erosions and decreased vision due to clouding of cornea in later stage. We reported a case of 53-year old woman presented with pain and blurring of vision of left eye for 10 days with history of right eye deep anterior lamellar dystrophy and Left eye penetrating keratoplasty 5years back for Avellino dystrophy. On examination right eye graft was clear and left eye showed circular edges of irregular epithelium with patchy stains and epithelial defect suggestive of recurrence of dystrophy. A patient with recurrent corneal erosions and opacity in cornea has to be examined carefully so as not to overlook Avellino corneal dystrophy. Being a rare disorder this case has been reported to draw the attention of ophthalmologists about its recurrence following keratoplasty.
