Actual (reported)The investigators propose that evidence of chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) may be evident in the vasculature of the fundus. The investigators will be examining fundi of multiple sclerosis patients and Ehlers-Danlos patients to see if evidence of CCSVI can be found in these patients having high risk for CCSVI. The investigators will read the fundus photos, compared to age-matched normals in a "blind" fashion.

Actual (reported)Fundus: venous engorgement/beading
Abnormal vessel appearance in fundi may include venous engorgement and beading, abnormal A/V ratio, blurred disc margins, papilledema, dot hemorrhages or exudates.
Baseline
Patients with suspected or confirmed cases of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and or Multiple Sclerosis
Age matched normals
Aged-matched normals are patients at Total Eye Care. Multiple sclerosis and/or Ehlers-Danlos patients will be accepted from any area, and will not be excluded based on location of residence. They need not be patients of Total Eye Care.
