PURPOSE To present a case report of mucolipidosis type IV (ML4) and review the literature for all of the ophthalmic abnormalities associated with this disease. METHODS A systematic review of the literature using PubMed/Medline was conducted, and with the addition of the current case report, the eye and ocular adnexa findings of 93 patients with ML4 are summarized. RESULTS The most common ophthalmic findings reported among the 93 patients included corneal clouding (90.3%), strabismus (58.1%), optic nerve pallor (52.2%), retinal dystrophy/pigmentary changes (50.5%), and retinal vascular attenuation (38.9%). Other less commonly reported findings included nystagmus, photophobia, ocular pain, excessive lacrimation, ptosis, and cataracts. CONCLUSIONS The ophthalmic findings discussed in the current case report and literature review serve as indicators for ML4. Early diagnosis of ML4 is important in forming a multidisciplinary management plan, genetic counseling strategy, and maximizing the visual development of affected individuals.
