The name of the disorder you are looking for is progeria or
Hutchinson-Guilford disease, which is a condition in which a relatively
young person has some physical characteristics of senility, particularly
in regard to the face..  There are also forms of progeria with cataracts
and progeria with micropthalmia (small eyes).

I saw no resemblence of the "Area 51 alien" to any examples of progeria
I have seen.  Seems like the Area 51 alien video will be a re-hash or
worse of the controversy surrounding the Santilli Alien autopsy.  These
Rocket guys did Santilli one better.  They conducted the video interview
with "Victor" off site (that hairy face mask)so they are out of the
picture.  You had to laugh when Victor got up threatening to stop the
interview, how melodramatic.  Even if the video were real its clear that
this video will waste many peoples time trying to establish its
bonafides given the way it was presented and the manner in which the
reviewers Dean, Strieber, et. al. were used to provide an aura of
credibility.
