Symptoms Of Fraser Syndrome To Watch For

Eyelid Duct Malformation

As previously mentioned, there are multiple potential impairments to the eyes that can result in vision loss and total blindness. The eyes will often be too small or fail to form altogether. There will also commonly be eyelid duct malformation, in which the tear ducts don't function properly or don't exist at all. This is referred to as a malformation or absence of the lacrimal ducts.

Other symptoms may show up on the face. The patient might be missing their eyelashes or eyebrows. Their ear structure might also be malformed, which can lead to hearing loss. It's common for the nose to have abnormally-shaped and small nostrils, while the mouth might have tooth crowding or a cleft lip.
