Purpose: The purpose of this study is to describe a case of unilateral keratoconus associated with ipsilateral craniofacial fibrous dysplasia and its subsequent management with corneal collagen cross-linking.
Observations: This is an interventional case report of a 16-year-old male with a history of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia of the left frontal bone and orbital roof status post partial resection six years prior who presented to the pediatric ophthalmology clinic with progressively blurry vision in the left eye. Refraction in this eye revealed an increase in cylinder by > 3D from his last refraction two years prior.

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a developmental pathology of the bones in which normal bone is replaced by fibrous tissue and immature bone. It can affect single bone (monostotic) or multiple bones (polyostotic), sporadically or in association with McCune-Albright syndrome, Jaffe-Lichtenstein syndrome, or Mazabraud syndrome. When multiple bones in the craniofacial region are affected, the term "craniofacial FD" is used.

Fibrous dysplasia is a rare benign intramedullary fibro-osseous lesion characterized by fibro-osseous proliferation with intervening areas of normal or immature bone. It can either be a monostotic or a polyostotic presentation. The etiology of fibrous dysplasia has been linked with a missense mutation in the GNAS1 gene on chromosome 20.
