Aim: To report a case of bilateral anterior and posterior Lenticonus without sensorineural hearing loss, without renal associations. Case report We describe a case of bilateral anterior and posterior Lenticonus and absence of family history. No renal association could be identied on urine routine microscopy and ultrasonography of the abdomen. Clear lens extraction with phacoemulsication with posterior chamber Intraocular lens (PCIOL) was performed for the patient. Conclusion The presence of bilateral anterior and posterior Lenticonus is rare but may be a presentation of Alport syndrome. Clear lens extraction with Intraocular lens is a viable treatment option with good visual prognosis.
