Lens (the crystalline lens)
Patient discussion about the crystalline lens
Q. My neighbor's kid had a lens dislocation due to Marfan's disease. Is this a contagious thing? My neighbor's have a sweet 8 year old boy. he had a lens dislocation due to a connective tissue disease named Marfan (I think that the name). It sounds like a very serious condition. My boy is playing with this kid several hour a week. should I take him to the GP to see that his is not infected with this marfan thing?
If you want there is nothing wrong in taking your boy for an annual check of an ophthalmologist.
