title: Oxycephaly, bilateral ectopia lentis, and retinal detachment.
abstract: We report the case of a man with oxycephaly, bilateral ectopia lentis, and total retinal detachment in one eye. Although the association of retinal detachment with ectopia lentis is well known, this is the first report to our knowledge of a craniosynostosis, specifically oxycephaly, being associated with ectopia lentis and retinal detachment.
