| Subject |
Genetic Disease; Optic Neuropathy |
| Description |
AEZ (MIM_201100) is a rare zinc deficiency disorder caused by mutations in the SLC39A4 gene (MIM_607059) on chromosome 8q24 with a prevalence of approximately 1 in 500,000 children [1]. A few cases of optic atrophy have been reported in association with AEZ, but it was not clear whether this was caused by ocular drug toxicity or secondary to the zinc deficiency per se [2,3]. |
