Ectodermal dysplasia and its related disorders may present with ocular symptoms due to involvement of the ectodermal components of the eye. This paper reports a case of congenital anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia presenting to the ophthalmologist with epiphora due to lacrimal atresia. The embryonic origin of the lacrimal system suggests that lacrimal anomalies in association with ectodermal disorders are commoner than reports indicate. Their management consists in accurate evaluation of the anomaly followed by surgery.
外胚层发育异常及其相关疾病可能因眼部外胚层成分受累而出现眼部症状。本文报告了一例先天性无汗性外胚层发育异常患者，因泪道闭锁导致溢泪而就诊于眼科医生。泪道系统的胚胎起源表明，与外胚层疾病相关的泪道异常比报道的更为常见。其治疗包括对异常情况进行准确评估，然后进行手术。
