Ocular manifestations and treatment progress of Parry-Romberg syndrome.

Summary: Imagine if half of your face slowly started to shrink. This is a very rare condition called Parry-Romberg syndrome. It does not just affect the face; it can also cause major problems for your eyes. Doctors recently looked at 69 different studies to learn more about how this disease hurts the eyes and how to treat it. Sadly, they found that we still do not know exactly what causes it, and there is no good cure yet. However, by studying the immune system and our genes, doctors hope to find better treatments in the future.
