Ocular manifestations of pediatric disease.

A review of the ocular manifestations of pediatric disease is in some ways a review of pediatrics itself. A paper this size cannot hope to be comprehensive in scope or encyclopedic in detail. Instead, we have chosen to touch on recent developments in pediatrics that we feel may be of particular interest to the ophthalmologist, as well as certain areas of pediatric ophthalmology that make it clear that a child's ocular disease takes place in the larger context of the growing child.
