Popis: The rare occurrence of both anterior and posterior lenticonus in association with Alport’s syndrome has been reported. However, the diagnosis of posterior lenticonus in these cases was based solely on slit-lamp examination, casting doubt on its accuracy. This is the first report to use multimodal anterior segment imaging to confirm the absence of posterior lenticonus, despite the illusion of its presence through slit-lamp examination.
