BILATERAL MEGALOCORNEA WITH UNILATERAL LENS SUBLUXATION

Megalocornea refers to an enlarged cornea that measures 13 mm or more in horizontal diameter in the absence of raised intraocular pressure. We describe a five-month-old boy with bilateral megalocornea with unil ateral lens subluxation. No other ophthalmological abnormality was pre sent. In all previously reported cases with megalocornea and ectopia l entis, the lens was cataractous and the dislocation was in the inferio r and posterior direction. In contrast, our case had a clear lens whic h was displaced superonasally.
