Ocular findings associated with congenital X-linked ichthyosis.
Ichthyosis is frequently associated with ocular and extraocular signs. We present a case of X-linked ichthyosis associated with alterations of the anterior and posterior segments. A penetrating keratoplasty was done, and because of the patient's corneal alterations, we did a histopathologic study of the button by light and transmission electron microscopy.
