Article Synopsis
- Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a rare genetic condition causing various health issues, including potential retinal problems, prompting this study to analyze the eye characteristics in WBS patients using advanced imaging techniques (OCT and OCTA).
- The study included 22 patients with confirmed WBS, revealing significantly reduced retinal thickness, especially in the inner layers, and altered foveal structure compared to an age-matched control group.
- Findings indicated decreased microvascular density and perfusion in patients with WBS, marking the first quantification of these eye changes, suggesting the need for further research to understand their clinical implications.
