Dominantly inherited blepharoptosis, high myopia, and ectopia lentis
W. N. Gillum and R. L. Anderson
A previously undescribed syndrome of bilateral blepharoptosis, ectopia
lentis, and high myopia apparently was dominantly inherited and originated
from a spontaneous genetic mutation. The syndrome seems to be caused by a
decrease in the tensile strength of the levator aponeurosis, the zonules,
and the sclera.
