Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is a congenital developmental disorder characterized by congenital sensorineural hearing loss and pigmentary deficiencies in the iris, hair, and skin. Ocular associations of WS include choroidal and iris hypopigmentation and foveal hypoplasia. Possible associations include cataracts and retinal vein occlusion. We report the first case of neurotrophic cornea and relate our experience with neurotization surgery.
