[Concordant deuteranomaly in monozygotic twin sisters (author's transl)].

Colorblind twin sisters were born from the marriage of a hemizygote with a carrier for colorblindness. The proof of monozygosity is given by the blood-group typing and the dermatoglyphs. The deuteranomaly is of the same degree in each but is more marked in one of the sisters. The mother has none of the microsymptoms sometimes found in carriers.

Fabry disease: ocular manifestations.

Fabry disease involves the different eye structures with variable frequencies. Typical alterations are the vascular lesions of the conjunctiva, the whirl-like opacities of the cornea, the wedge-shaped anterior opacities and the branching spokes of the lens, as well as the vascular lesions of the retina. Histopathologic examination correlates well with the observed symptoms. Several drugs may induce whirl-like opacities. The importance of the slit-lamp examination in Fabry disease has been further stressed by the discovery of angiokeratoma corporis diffusum in fucosidosis.
