Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (MED) is a phenotypically heterogeneous disease associated with orthopedic abnormalities among other systemic manifestations. While the spectrum of ocular abnormalities in this disorder is yet to be fully reported, MED has been rarely associated in the literature with the development of cataracts and keratoconus. Here, we report a case of bilateral massager-induced anterior subcapsular cataracts and keratoconus in a 46-year-old female with MED. This case presentation aims to prevent similar occurrences of inappropriate massaging device use and highlight potential ocular findings in MED patients.
多发性骨骺发育不良(MED)是一种表型异质性疾病,除其他全身表现外,还与骨科异常有关。虽然该疾病眼部异常的范围尚未完全报道,但在文献中,MED很少与白内障和圆锥角膜的发生相关。在此,我们报告一例46岁患有MED的女性因按摩器导致双侧前囊下白内障和圆锥角膜的病例。本病例报告旨在防止类似不当使用按摩器情况的发生,并强调MED患者潜在的眼部表现。
