Description Marcus Gunn jaw winking syndrome (MGJW) is due to aberrant innervation of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle by the trigeminal nerve. This has been reported with other ocular abnormalities like monocular elevation deficiency and Duane's syndrome1. We report a case associated with electronegative cone-rod dystrophy.To the best of my knowledge, this is the first report of MJGW with a retinal dystrophy. This report expands our knowledge of ocular disorders associate with MGJW and may assist in the understanding of the pathophysiology of this condition.
