Case Discussion
Ectopia lentis is most commonly seen in patients after a head injury, like in this case.
Other causes and associations include systemic disorders such as Ehlers-Danlos, homocystinuria or Marfan syndrome.
In cases of multiple intracranial abnormalities, pathologies involving the lenses may be easily missed.
