Description

Brittle cornea syndrome (BCS) is characterized by blue sclerae, corneal rupture after minor trauma, keratoconus or keratoglobus, hyperelasticity of the skin, and hypermobility of the joints (Al-Hussain et al., 2004). It is classified as a form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (Malfait et al., 2017). Genetic Heterogeneity of Brittle Cornea SyndromeBrittle cornea syndrome-2 (BCS2 ) is caused by mutation in the PRDM5 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 4q27.
