Lens coloboma secondary to neglected buphthalmos

A 36-year-old male presented with progressive diminution of vision OS for 3 months. He was a known case of bilateral congenital glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy at 6 months and 5 years of age OD and OS respectively. Best corrected visual acuity was 6/24 OD and 1/60 OS. Slit lamp examination revealed bilateral Haab striae (Figure 1a) with lens subluxation OS evident by the scalloped border of the lens with broken zonules in the superonasal quadrant and lens coloboma in the inferonasal quadrant with the absence of zonules (Figure 1b,c,d). A posterior subcapsular cataract was also noted OS. Advanced glaucomatous optic nerve cupping was noted OU. An intraocular pressure of 10 mm Hg OD and 16 mm Hg OS was noted. Biometry documented an axial length of 26.30 mm OD and 28.75 mm OS with a keratometry of 42.50D/46.50D @20˚/110˚OD and 37.75D/40.00D @ 45˚/135˚OS. Ultrasound bio-microscopy depicted increased sphericity of the lens with broken zonules OS (Figure 1e).
