What Is Stromme Syndrome?
9. Eyes
Patients with Stromme syndrome can also find that they are born with problems with their eyes. Quite often, their eyes will be underdeveloped and smaller than usual. It is usually the case that one eye is more affected than the other. Other problems can include cataracts, leukoma, which is an opaque cornea, coloboma, which is a hole in the iris, and sclerocornea, which is when the cornea blends in with the whites of the eyes.
There are a number of other conditions that patients can have, and their impact can range from causing a slight decrease in their quality of vision, to making the patient blind.
