Re: [Stickler Syndrome ] SS and Albinism?

hello. my brother had his cleft repaired when he was 2 i believe, but he is
now 7 and having to undergo further surgery. just out of curiosity...did
they forcast that for your little boy?

my father is completely blind, most the older generation and some of my
generation in the family are blind in the left eye.

i am lucky, i only have glaucoma and severe myopia with my eyes. although i
do have some retinal thinning, but they are not sure if that is part of the
syndrome in my case. i do also have extremely lax joints with arthritic
changes..... but like i said, i believe i am lucky.

what is occular albinism exactly?

Good luck to you and your son as well
