Six patients, from five families, five males and one female, suffering from lenticonus anterior are presented. Furthermore, all suffered from chronic nephritis and nerve deafness and must be considered cases of Alport's syndrome. As all cases with lenticonus anterior which have been published within the last 13 years likewise were affected with nerve deafness and/or chronic nephritis, the assumption is submitted that lenticonus anterior exists exclusively as a part of Alport's syndrome. It is pointed out that four patients had a weakened bilateral macula reflex with changes in pigmentation. Attention is drawn to the fact that patients with lenticonus anterior often have a cornea astigmatism of 2-3 D. A complete table of all reported patients with anterior lenticonus is presented.

Purpose: To report a case of bilateral serous retinal detachment associated with Alport's syndrome that resolved following intensive blood pressure control and electrolyte imbalance correction. Case summary: A 50-year-old male patient presented with bilateral lenticonus and bilateral serous retinal detachment. Bilateral serous retinal detachment with retinal flecks characteristic of Alport's syndrome appeared along with the development of chronic renal failure and hypertension. The following kidney biopsy revealed Alport's syndrome. After 14 days, the serous detachment resolved and vision recovered following intensive blood pressure control and electrolyte imbalance correction fundus and FA results were nearly normal. Conclusions: In this case, bilateral serous retinal detachment in Alport's syndrome resolved with intensive blood pressure control and electrolyte imbalance correction. To the author's knowledge, this is the first case in South Korea with documentation of the onset and resolution of bilateral serous retinal detachment in Alport's syndrome.
