The Eyes in Marfan Syndrome

Marfan syndrome and some related disorders can affect the eyes in many ways, causing dislocated lenses and other eye problems that can affect your sight. Except for dislocated lenses, these eye problems also occur in the general population, which is why doctors do not always realize they are caused by Marfan syndrome. It is important to know that, even though these problems occur in the general population, they are much more common in people who have Marfan syndrome.
