The Sjogren-Larsson syndrome is genetically determined syndrome with autosomal recessive inheritence and characterized by the three cardinal signs: congenital ichthyosis, spastic di/tetraplegia, and mental retardation. Ocular signs include ectropion, blepharitis, conjunctivitis, keratitis, and macular glistening spot.
