Why is it important?
These findings help better understanding this rare disease. HANAC Syndrome is not a common issue; thus, it is essential understanding it to make the right diagnosis. Careful ophthalmological examination plays a key role in this process since, in the herein reported case, it could have helped diagnosing a disease capable of affecting patient’s health, although it was an atypical ocular impairment.
