Pierson syndrome

A rare syndrome characterised by the association of congenital nephrotic syndrome and ocular anomalies with microcoria.

Microcoria

A small pupil (typically diameter less than 2 mm) that dilates poorly or not at all in response to topically administered mydriatic drugs.

The reported phenotype is considered a relatively mild variant of Pierson syndrome and is associated with later-onset (18months) therapy-resistant nephrotic syndrome leading to renal failure, and ocular abnormalities consisting of high myopia, microcoria, diverse retinal abnormalities, hence a low level of visual acuity.
