[Corneal dystrophy and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome].

A case of bilateral corneal dystrophy in a young 6-year-old patient with an Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is presented. Thin opaque lamellae of different densities were observed in the posterior corneal stroma, and there were some subepithelial opacities. An irregularity of Descemet's membrane was also noted. The classification of this dystrophy is discussed, as well as the possible relation between the dystrophy and diseases of the elastic connective tissue.
