Ocular and dermatologic manifestation of neurocutaneous syndromes.
Dermatologic Clinics 1992 July
The dermatologic and ophthalmologic manifestations of neurocutaneous syndromes are numerous and varied, but familiarity with them is essential to the clinician from any specialty who may have to deal with these disorders.

For affected children and their parents, early diagnosis (based on sometimes subtle findings) and formulation of a complete and accurate prognosis can considerably ease the burden imposed by any of these conditions.
