- Try building your search one term at a time, and be as specific as you can! Search term example: "chronic cough".
- Do not enter multiple findings such as "anemia, chronic cough, weight loss, vomiting" all at the same time.
- After selecting your term from the search results a list of possible diagnoses will be generated. If the list is too long, you will be able to narrow it down by entering additional terms.
- Do not enter values such as "heart rhythm 110" or "sodium 125", instead use "tachycardia" or "hyponatremia".

- Definition

This is a hereditary disorder of the eyes with epithelial
deposits. There is particular anterior lens capsule focus which predisposis to lens dislocation and glaucoma. Usually it is seen in Scandanavian or Northern European population. Pathology findings include typical eosinophilic-staining deposits pallisaded on the anterior lens capsule surface.
