Purpose:To report the ocular findings of a rare case of mutation in the nuclear-encoded mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase IARS2.Methods:A 33-year-old woman known for infantile cataracts, growth hormone deficiency, sensory neuropathy, sensorineural hearing loss, and skeletal dysplasia was referred to us for multiple failed corneal grafts and severe eye dryness.Results:The patient was found to have neurotrophic keratitis and corneal opacification.Conclusions:Patients with this very rare mutation present with a myriad of ocular findings, including infantile cataract, neurotrophic keratitis, corneal opacification, and orbital myopathy.
