We herein report a case of atypical Gillespie syndrome associated with bilateral ptosis, exotropia, corectopia, iris hypoplasia, anterior capsular lens opacities, foveal hypoplasia, retinal vascular tortuosity, and retinal hypopigmentation. Neurologic evaluation revealed a mild hand tremor and learning disability, but no ataxia or cerebellar abnormalities on neuroimaging. Sequencing studies revealed a substitution in intron 2 of the PAX6 gene (IVS2 + 2T > A). To our knowledge, this is the first mutation of PAX6 gene reported in association with a Gillespie-like syndrome.
