Brittle Cornea Syndrome: Case Report with Novel Mutation in the PRDM5 Gene and Review of the Literature

Figure 2

Spontaneous corneal perforation in a child with brittle cornea syndrome. (A) For primary repair of the spontaneous corneal rupture of the right eye 4 corneal sutures were placed and the right eye was covered with a contact lens. (B) After suture removal, cornea healed and mild iris incarceration (arrow) persisted. (C) Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed the iris incarceration (asterisk) to be only adherent on the rear surface of the cornea (arrow). Corneal thickness was 289 μm.
