Picture collage of eyes which underwent selective endothelial removal for the treatment of Peters anomaly. The last reviews for patients 1 and 3 were at the 60th and 48th post-operative month, while the last review with photos being taken for patient 2 was at the 24th post-operative month. Gradual post-operative improvements in the central corneal opacities were seen in all eyes. Pre-op, pre-operative; POM, post-operative month.

Gradual post-operative clearance of the central corneal opacity (Figure 2) was accompanied by functional improvements in her visual acuity, which progressed from 20/94 at the 6th post-operative month to 20/30 at the 12th post-operative month. In contrast to the first two patients with unilateral disease, the third patient had bilateral type 1 Peters anomaly (Figure 2).

Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) images for both eyes of patient 3. Pre-operatively, thick paracentral bands of iridocorneal adhesions with shallow anterior chambers may be seen in both eyes. Serial post-operative UBM images demonstrate that these bands have been lysed, with normalization of anterior chamber depths. Pre-op, pre-operative; POW, post-operative week; POM, post-operative month.

Baseline UBM revealed thickened irides with extensive bands of irido-corneal adhesions, as well as very shallow anterior chambers (Figure 3). SER for her right eye at 9 months of age, followed by SER for her left eye. Serial post-operative UBM scans indicated successful lysis of all major bands of central iridocorneal adhesions associated with normalization of anterior chamber depths in both eyes (Figure 3).
