Abstract

This report is about ocular and audiometric findings in three children with Waardenburg syndrome Type 2
attending Special Education Centres in Nigeria.
Two female children and a male child aged 10, 13 and 5 years respectively had ocular examination and
audiometric evaluation using inter-acoustics eclipse ASSR (Serial number 0933518) for auditory steady-state
response audiometry (ASSR). The ocular features included bilateral hypoplastic blue irides and bilateral
hypopigmented fundi while ASSR showed severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. The three children had
mutism hence they used sign languages for communication.
There is a need for early detection of this condition, health education and planned rehabilitation.
