Congenital narrow-angle glaucoma and iris nevi in a neonate with epidermal nevus syndrome

Congenital ciliary body cysts causing lens abnormalities and secondary angle closure glaucoma in a child

“…2 Secondary angle closure glaucoma in children is rare, with only a small number of cases previously reported. 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 While approximately 90% of angle closure glaucoma in adults is due to pupillary block, in children, angle closure is primarily due to structural or developmental ocular abnormalities. 3 , 8 A small study of angle closure in young patients reported diagnoses in order of frequency as: plateau iris syndrome, iridociliary cysts, retinopathy of prematurity, uveitis, nanophthalmos, pupillary block, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Marfan syndrome, miotic-induced angle closure, persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous, and idiopathic lens subluxation.…”
