Abstract
- Parry-Romberg syndrome, or progressive facial hemiatrophy, is a rare and acquired neurocutaneous disease of unknown etiology that is classically characterized by progressive and self=limited atrophy of the skin, subcutaneous tissues, and underlying bone structures. Ophthalmic involvement is reportedly not uncommon, and the most common ocular finding is enophthalmos. Here we report a 46=year=old woman with Parry=Romberg syndrome who presented with intermittent exotropia of the right eye. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first description of intermittent exotropia in a patient with Parry-Romberg syndrome.
