Abstract
Monilethrix is a rare genodermatosis, presented to us with predominant ocular manifestations. The affected proband was typically characterized by severe photophobia, defective vision, and hypotrichosis with brittle and stubby hair. Here, we report a rare case of a 9-year-old male child who has been affected by monilethrix with severe ocular complications including blepharitis, madarosis, and corneal pannus with lamellar cataract. The child has undergone cataract surgery and visual rehabilitation was provided with low-vision devices.
