7. Eye Conditions

Most people are born with perfectly functioning eyes, although it is quite common for our eyesight to worsen as we get older. In the modern world, this is not usually a problem for us because there are numerous treatments that can help to restore sight.

People with Noonan syndrome are more likely to be born with eye conditions that can hinder their eyesight. These include, but are not limited to, astigmatism, hyperopia, myopia, crossed eyes, and cataracts. Fortunately, most of these conditions are treatable with surgery, or with correction equipment such as spectacles and contact lenses. Very few people will lose their eyesight altogether.
