title: Ptosis, extraocular motility disorder, and myopia as features of pompe disease.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The assets of this report are a thorough description of new clinical findings, namely the combination of ptosis, extraocular motility disorder and myopia, in consequence of prolonged survival in classic infantile-onset Pompe disease through enzyme therapy.
  
  
  METHODS
  Single case description.
  
  
  RESULTS
  This manuscript describes a combination of ptosis, extraocular motility disorder and myopia in a 4.5-year-old patient with classic infantile-onset Pompe disease, who survived through enzyme therapy. This patient was treated with a bilateral frontalis suspension (modified Crawford technique) using prolene 3-0 sutures.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The combination of ptosis, extraocular motility disorder and myopia, is a new clinical finding in children with classic infantile-onset Pompe disease.
