Unilateral Congenital Lenticular Pigmentation.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Release of pigments in the anterior chamber is frequently observed in pigment dispersion syndrome, an autosomal dominant disorder marked by bilateral pigment deposition on the anterior and possibly posterior lens capsule, zonules of the lens, trabecular meshwork, and corneal endothelium, in addition to radial, spoke-like transillumination defects in the mid peripheral iris [J Ayub Med Coll Abbottabad. 2017;29(3):412-414 and Optom Vis Sci. 1995;72(10):756-762]. Pigmentation of the anterior lens surface has also been associated with intraocular inflammation, pseudoexfoliation syndrome, siderosis, antipsychotic medication usage, and remnants of the tunica vasculosa lentis [Br J Ophthalmol. 1998;82(11):1344].
