Abstract
- Retinal hamartomas are the most common ocular abnormalities in up to 50% of patients with tuberous sclerosis. Other ocular lesions are retinal pigment epitheliallesions and salmon-colored nodules in the eyelid and conjunctiva. We have experienced two cases of tuberous sclerosis. The first patient was a 13 year-old female with type 1 and type 2 of retinal hamartomas and retinal pigment epithelial lesion. The second patient was a 19-year-old male with type 1 and type 3 of retinal hamartomas and intracranial calcifications.
