Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Coloboma means curtailed in Greek language. It is mainly used when normal tissue of the eye or another organ is not present since birth. Coloboma is a congenital abnormality mainly caused by incomplete closure of the embryonic fissure of the choroid part of eye.
PURPOSE: The aim of this case report is to share the clinical findings in a patient with bilateral iris coloboma, low vision, and headache.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Case report.
RESULTS: An eleven-year-old boy with low vision and headache visited the University Eye Hospital of Kabul University of Medical Science (UEHKUMS) for consultation. Ophthalmic examination revealed a bilateral iris coloboma without concomitant chorioretinal defect, refractive error, and high intraocular pressure in both eyes. The refractive error of the patient was corrected by advising proper glasses, and the high intraocular pressure was controlled by anti-glaucoma drops. After several follow-up visits, the patient no longer complained of headache and low vision.
CONCLUSION: Visiting patients with iris coloboma should be considered for intraocular pressure (IOP) check, and screening of other family members is mandatory.
