Distinguishing features of the iridocorneal endothelial syndrome and posterior polymorphous dystrophy: value of endothelial specular microscopy.
The literature suggests that posterior polymorphous dystrophy (PPD) may show features such as iridocorneal adhesions, glassy membranes, and pupillary ectropion which are typically ascribed to the iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome. This complicates diagnosis. PPD, unlike ICE, is familial, and ICE, unlike PPD, is usually progressive and frequently complicated by glaucoma: thus it is importa...
متن کاملDiagnosis and Management of Iridocorneal Endothelial Syndrome
The iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome is a rare ocular disorder that includes a group of conditions characterized by structural and proliferative abnormalities of the corneal endothelium, the anterior chamber angle, and the iris. Common clinical features include corneal edema, secondary glaucoma, iris atrophy, and pupillary anomalies, ranging from distortion to polycoria. The main subtype...
متن کاملIridocorneal endothelial syndrome.
A 19 years boy with a 2 years history of reduced and fluctuating vision along with change in pupillary shape and iris colour in his left eye presented to the glaucoma clinic. Ocular examination revealed distinct unilateral stretch holes, iris architecture changes and localized iris atrophy. Intraocular pressure was 16 mmHg in the right and 36 mmHg in the left eye. Gonioscopy of the left angle r...
متن کاملBilateral iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome with microspherophakia.
Iridocorneal endothelial syndrome is described to be a rare, usually unilateral ocular condition in young females. There are three known overlapping clinical variants of this condition namely, essential iris atrophy, Cogan-Reese and Chandler syndrome. We report a case of bilateral iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome with microspherophakia. A 25 years old female presented with microspheropha...
متن کامل[Posterior polymorphous dystrophy and LASIK].
OBJECTIVE/METHOD A 50-year-old hyperopic woman requested information about refractive surgery. Vesicle and band lesions at Descemet's membrane and endothelium were suggestive of posterior polymorphous dystrophy (PPD). Lower than normal endothelial cell densities were detected. A corneal refractive procedure was not recommended in this case. RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS The presence of vesicles and ban...
