ABSTRACT
Objective: to describe the ocular findings in children with
mucopolysaccharidosis at the Ophtalmology department.
Methods: clinical, descriptive, retrospective, transversal, and observational
study was done. The cohort included patients under
16 years old, treated at the
Hospital General, Centro Médico
Nacional La Raza, with diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidosis.
The variables were age, gender, damaged eye, visual acuity,
ocular findings, type of mucopolysaccharidosis.
Results: there were 11 patients with mucopolysaccharidosis, 10
of them (90.9 %) full filled the inclusion criteria; nine were
men. Mean age was 5.5 ± 2.8 years. There were ocular findings
in both eyes in 60 % of the patients, 10 % of them in just one
eye. The most frequent finding was corneal opacity (70 %),
bilateral in 85.7 %, and in a single eye in 14.3 %. The ocular
findings (40 %) were common in mucopolysaccharidosis type I.
Conclusions: there is visual sequels secondary to mucopolysaccharidosis.
It is important to study the ocular disorders in order
to treat it timely and give to patients the immediate rehabilitation
to improve the quality of life.
