Abstract

Figure 1: (a,b) Slit lamp photo showing a posterior polar cataract with posterior cord like extension clearly visualised in retro illumination. (c) Fundus picture showing the cord like structure in the anterior vitreous phase and (d) Showing the morning glory discA 9-year-old female presented with defective vision in the right eye since childhood. Visual acuity was counting fingers at 2 m. Anterior segment examination revealed cataractous changes in the posterior capsule [Fig. 1a] with a thin cord-like structure extending to the posterior pole seen on retro illumination [Fig. 1b]. Fundus examination revealed further extension of the stalk through the vitreous [Fig. 1c] up to the disc. A large disc with central excavation, peripapillary pigmentation, and radially exiting blood vessels [Fig. 1d] suggestive of morning glory syndrome was seen. The rest of the fundus was normal. Declaration of patient consent The authors certify that they have obtained all appropriate patient consent forms. In the form, the patient(s) has/have given his/her/their consent for his/her/their images and other clinical information to be reported in the journal. The patients understand that their names and initials will not be published and due efforts will be made to conceal their identity, but anonymity cannot be guaranteed.
