Al Hajri, Rayah.

An 8-month-old baby was brought by his parents to the clinic with presenting complaints of white spot in the pupil of left eye noticed since the age of 2 months.

Examinations under anesthesia showed bilateral microcornea and microphthalmos. Figure 1 shows anterior segment of the left eye and Figure 2 shows posterior segment of the right eye.
