Brittle cornea syndrome type 2 is associated with corneal thinning, joint hypermobility, dental and skeletal issues, osteal fragility, and deafness. We present a rare association of congenital glaucoma with brittle cornea syndrome type 2 and keratoglobus in a patient with a novel PRDM5 gene mutation. Our case underscores the importance of genetic testing for early clinical diagnosis and tailored surgical approaches.
