Microspherophakia associated with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome

Microspherophakia associated with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome

We report a 13-year-old girl with Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome who was also found to have microspherophakia. She developed glaucoma in both eyes and was treated with bilateral pars plana lensectomy. To the best of our knowledge, no such association has been reported previously in the literature.
