    Author: Chiu M, Watson S.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2015 Oct 05; 2015():. PubMed ID: 26438671.
    Abstract:
    We report the ocular and systemic manifestations of vitamin A deficiency in a child with a complicated medical history including autism and a restricted diet, living in a developed country. This child had significant vitamin A deficiency despite being under long-term medical care, yet the diagnosis was not considered until he had an ophthalmology review for visual deterioration.
