A Case Series of Alport Syndrome with Posterior Lenticonus

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Alport syndrome is a genetic disorder primarily affecting the kidneys, eyes, and ears, characterised by a classical triad of haematuria, anterior lenticonus, and sensorineural deafness. This case series examines the ocular manifestations, particularly posterior lenticonus, in three patients with Alport syndrome evaluated at a tertiary care centre. By integrating current findings from recent studies, this series highlights the significance of ophthalmic assessment in diagnosing and managing Alport syndrome.
