Abstract
A 60-year-old woman who had experienced isolated ptosis for two years was seen when it had been fixed for one year. She had a personal and familial history of stromal corneal dystrophy. The diagnosis of mitochondrial cytopathy was made on the basis of clinical, electrophysiological, biological and histological findings. Surgical repair of the ptosis allowed visual recovery. The relationship between ptosis, corneal dystrophy and mitochondrial cytopathy is discussed.
