These were interspersed with multiple depigmented macules over her arms and legs since, she was three years old. She also had a small pigmented mass involving the left eye present for the last 3 months. She had a family history of similar cutaneous lesions in her elder sister. There was no history of hearing loss, seizures, spasticity, or cognitive impairment.
