#45 Bilateral Keratoconus
Keratoconus is a condition in which the cornea of the eye is unable to hold its round shape and it bulges outward, like a cone. It is usually bilateral and present normally at puberty. It is considered rare in children.
What you see here is an “oil-droplet” reflex (Charleux sign), a dark reflex in the area of the cone on observation of the cornea by distant direct ophthalmoscopy, which is highly evocative of keratoconus.
