    This document summarizes Sturge-Weber syndrome, which is characterized by a port-wine stain on the face following the distribution of nerves V and V2, often accompanied by congenital glaucoma where the eye enlarges significantly. Associated vascular malformations may occur in the brain cortex following the gyral pattern and be seen on MRI, as well as diffuse hemangiomas in the choroid causing increased redness of the eye.
