This communication presents the ocular findings in 30 patients with Down's syndrome residing in a central institution for the mentally retarded. The findings have been compared to those in matched controls consisting of mentally retarded people from the same institution. The ocular status in patients with Down's syndrome has been extensively studied previously, and to a large extent, findings in previous materials were confirmed. However, in this institution, which consisted of adult patients only, some unusual findings have also been made: nine of the 30 patients had keratoconus, which is a remarkably high figure. A compilation of data shows that only one of the patients with Down's syndrome had nearly normal ocular status.
本文介绍了居住在一家智障人士中心机构的30例唐氏综合征患者的眼部检查结果。这些结果与来自同一机构的智障对照人群的检查结果进行了比较。唐氏综合征患者的眼部状况此前已得到广泛研究，并且在很大程度上，先前资料中的发现得到了证实。然而，在这家仅收治成年患者的机构中，也有一些不寻常的发现：30例患者中有9例患有圆锥角膜，这一数字相当高。数据汇总显示，只有1例唐氏综合征患者的眼部状况近乎正常。
