Congenital aplasia of the iris sphincter and dilator muscles.

Congenital aplasia of the iris sphincter and dilator muscles is rare. We describe a 3-month-old boy with a patent ductus arteriosus who had this anomaly, with no other ocular or systemic abnormalities. The child, whom we followed for over 7 years, had reduced accommodative amplitudes.

Ciliary body reattachment in ocular hypotony.

Ocular hypotony associated with detachment of the ciliary body without evident cyclodialysis has been corrected by reattachment of the ciliary body to the sclera. This was achieved by suturing the ciliary body to sclera under microscopic control. It would seem that prolonged hypotony of this type can be cured by this method.

Eccentric serous choroidopathy: a case report.

A patient presented with a serous detachment of the retina outside the macular region in one eye and three years later a similar detachment in the fellow eye. The clinical findings were otherwise identical to those seen in patients with idiopathic central serous choroidopathy. Idiopathic eccentric serous choroidopathy is probably a variant of idiopathic central serous choroidopathy.
