The Rieger anomaly refers to the maldevelopment of the anterior chamber of the ocular globe. The iris and cornea do not form correctly, findings including:
- hypoplastic iris stroma
-
corectopia: an off-center pupil in the iris
-
colobomas of the iris (pseudopolycoria)
Patients are at increased risk of glaucoma and associated visual loss.
