  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 16-year-old female presented with Axenfeld -Rieger syndrome with marked differences in gonioscopic findings and severity of glaucoma between either eye.

Both eyes manifested anteriorly displaced ring of Schwalbe and hypoplasia of the anteior iris stroma. Gonioscopy showed iris strands bridging the angle in all the quadrants in the right eye with slightlyelevated intraocular pressure. Iris strands were almost absent in the left eye with severe glaucoma, pronounced optic nerve head damage and visual loss. Trabeculectomy became necessary in the left eye because of intractable glaucoma.

Light and electron microscopic studies of the excised tissue showed absent canal of Schlemm and hypoplasia of the trabecular meshwork. It appeared that the glaucoma in this syndrome was due to maldevelopment of the aqueous outflow system.
