Described here is a family with typical features of this syndrome in eleven cases in five generations. Syndrome is discussed and blepharophimosis underlined. Blepharophimosis is also a minor defect in the contest of complex malformation syndromes having different aetiology (mendelian inheritance, chromosomal abnormality, toxic agents).
