Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Ophthalmology Pediatrics Science & Technology
Amblyogenic anisometropia is common in children with primary congenital glaucoma who have asymmetric buphthalmos. We report the case of a 6-year-old girl with markedly asymmetric buphthalmos but without anisometropia. Biometry confirmed that the more buphthalmic eye was longer than the contralateral eye and also had flatter keratometry.
