Bilateral iris, lens and Chorioretinal Coloboma: A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Research and Ophthalmology - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Colobomas are genetic malformations due to lack of closure of the embryonic fissure. These are rare malformations that can sit at any level of the eye. Colobomas can be uni or bilateral, sporadic or hereditary. It may be associated with other ocular manifestations and extra-ocular malformations involving a general, clinical and radiological examination. We report the case of a 28 year old young man with no significant pathological history whose ophthalmological examination revealed a coloboma affecting the iris, lens and choroid.
