Congenital iris ectropion uveae presenting with glaucoma in infancy
Abstract
A healthy 5-month-old boy presented with a sporadic unilateral right-sided sectorial ectropion uveae, anterior insertion of the iris root, increased IOP, and glaucomatous disk changes. The absence of other additional ocular anomalies and the appearance of the angle led to a diagnosis of congenital iris ectropion syndrome. IOPs became refractory to maximal topical therapy, and trabeculotomy surgery was performed. The patient has since been stabilized on topical agents.
