Resulting in Progressive accumulation of the substrate globotriaosylceramide, throughout the body, organ failure, and premature death can occur.The syndrome has eye complications, epidermal, cardiovascular, renal, pulmonary, and gastrointestinal problems. Clinical manifestations include cardiomyopathy, renal failure, stroke, and skin lesions. The cornea verticillata is whorl-like radial lines that emanated from a single vortex that seen in the examination of slit-lamp. In cases where Fabry syndrome is known, other effects of this syndrome include the distinctive lenticular opacities and conjunctival and retinal vascular tortuosity.
