TLDR The symptoms described align more with Haberland syndrome, not Delleman-Oorthuys syndrome.
The document discussed the diagnostic criteria and clinical features of Delleman-Oorthuys syndrome and Haberland syndrome. The authors critiqued a case report by Nocito et al., arguing that the described symptoms, such as a dermoid cyst on the cornea and limbus, blue-gray cyst on the sclera, and other ocular and dermal anomalies, did not align with Delleman-Oorthuys syndrome but were more indicative of Haberland syndrome. They suggested alternative treatments for the ocular conditions described, emphasizing the importance of early surgical intervention to prevent complications like amblyopia and recommending evisceration with orbital implant over enucleation for better cosmetic outcomes.
