Specific changes in the fundus typical for the Sjögren-Larsson syndrome. An ophthalmological study of 35 patients.
All Swedish cases with the Sjögren-Larsson syndrome (SLS) i.e. 35 patients were studied. Glistening dots of unknown nature were seen round the foveola. These foveal and parafoveal changes seem to be a cardinal sign of SLS together with congenital ichthyosis, spastic di/tetraplegia and mental deficiency.
