Bilateral Morning Glory Disc Anomaly with Bilateral Microspherophakia – A Rare Association

Abstract Morning Glory Disc Anomaly (MGDA) is a congenital optic disc pathology characterized by a funnel-shaped excavation of the optic disc, surrounded by an annulus of chorioretinal pigmentation and radially oriented vessels at the disc margin. It is more commonly unilateral, with a variety of ocular and systemic associations. Microspherophakia is a bilaterally presenting congenital anomaly seen as increased anteroposterior thickness and a reduced equatorial diameter of the lens. We report a rare case with bilateral MGDA and bilateral microspherophakia. The two entities have not been reported together thus far.

Abstract

Abstract Morning Glory Disc Anomaly (MGDA) is a congenital optic disc pathology characterized by a funnel-shaped excavation of the optic disc, surrounded by an annulus of chorioretinal pigmentation and radially oriented vessels at the disc margin. It is more commonly unilateral, with a variety of ocular and systemic associations. Microspherophakia is a bilaterally presenting congenital anomaly seen as increased anteroposterior thickness and a reduced equatorial diameter of the lens. We report a rare case with bilateral MGDA and bilateral microspherophakia. The two entities have not been reported together thus far.
