Restrictive ophthalmopathy associated with linear scleroderma.
A patient with a coup de sabre lesion of the forehead developed progressive ipsilateral limitation of ocular motility, primarily involving adduction and depression. Investigation disclosed no other explanation for the ocular motility disturbance, which we suspect represents restrictive myopathy maximally involving ocular muscles immediately subjacent to the area of linear scleroderma.
