Bilateral complete isolated cryptophthalmos: a case report.
Cryptophthalmos is a condition of congenital eyelid malformation most commonly accompanied by syndactyly, urogenital anomalies, and cognitive impairments as in Fraser syndrome. We report on a patient with characteristic features consistent with autosomal dominant bilateral complete isolated cryptophthalmos. This patient represents only the sixth documented case of bilateral complete isolated cryptophthalmos. Defining characteristics of this variety are discussed, including bilateral central dimpling over the globes, normal eyebrow growth, and the absence of cognitive impairment. We introduce phenotypic features that distinguish bilateral isolated cryptophthalmos from other forms and discuss its relatively favorable prognosis.
