We report a case of a 60–year–old female who presented with bilateral slowly progressive visual loss. The patient presented with bilateral light perception visual acuity, exotropia, brunescent cataract hindering fundus examination and hypodontia. [semanticscholar.org]
Mean age at presentation was lower in PM (16.02 15.34 years, range 6 months to 72 years) than in NO group (33.20 19.31 years, range 3–60 years). Age distribution at presentation is shown in Figure 1. Eighty percent of PM presented at Figure 1 ). [nature.com]

Macula
Abstract Seven related patients had a progressive pigmentary retinal degeneration, characterized by nyctalopia, visual field restriction, and cystic macular degeneration in younger patients and a macula of nonspecific atrophic appearance in older patients [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Fundal examination revealed crowded optic discs with papillomacular folds and a macula with a distinctive yellow appearance. [bjo.bmj.com]
The globe is small with a thickened choroid and sclera and the macula becomes atrophic later in life. Some patients have cystic macular changes early without fluorescein leakage. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Note the bilateral sectorial distribution of pigmentary clumps in the peripheral upper retina (arrow) and blurred macula. [124.205.33.103]
Serous retinal detachment developed in both maculas. The visual acuit y was very poor (light perception) on the left side because of the glaucoma. We applied intravitreal anti-VEGF (0.5 mg ranimizumab) injection twice into the right eye. [omicsonline.org]

Skin Atrophy
We observed the signs of the Hallermann-Streiff syndrome with bird-like face, the presence of natal teeth, and skin atrophy on the nose. After cataract surgery (aspiration with bimanual technique) we prescibed spectacles. [omicsonline.org]

Blister
Both forms may be associated with cysts (sack-like blisters) that form a spoke-like pattern in the retina. Retinal detachments can occur, and if detected early, they sometimes can be repaired with surgery. [tsbvi.edu]

Treatment
Authored by three prominent specialists in the field, this text provides comprehensive coverage of diagnostic and treatment modalities for optimal glaucoma management. [books.google.de]
Though the “best” method of treatment still remains somewhat controversial amongst ophthalmologists, many forms of treatment have clear benefit, and treatment should not be delayed. [southwesterneyecare.com.au]

Treatment Treatment Options: Narrow angles with shallow anterior chamber depth should be treated with prophylactic iridotomies. References [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Prognosis
PROGNOSIS Those who develop uncontrolled glaucoma and need surgery have poor visual prognosis secondary to common posterior segment intra- and postoperative complications. [entokey.com]
Visual prognosis is related to the central corneal involvement. The cornea has a flat curvature. [mendelian.co]
The prevention of neovascular glaucoma is extraordinarily important since treatment is difficult and the prognosis is generally poor. [southwesterneyecare.com.au]
Prognosis Nanophthalmos has a broad clinical spectrum, determining an also broad spectrum for the patients’ quality of life. Amblyopia can be prevented or minimized if high hyperopia is detected early in life. [eyewiki.aao.org]
Etiology
They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]
It is possible to misclassify cases with retinal pigmentary changes secondary to infectious, inflammatory, toxic etiology, or cone dystrophies as RP. [journals.plos.org]

Pathophysiology
Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome On postulated pathophysiologic mechanisms that have been abandoned, Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome also was known as anterior chamber cleavage syndrome and mesodermal dysgenesis of the cornea and iris. [emedicine.medscape.com]
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY • It may result from an arrest in ocular development after closure of the embryonic fissure. • A smaller than normal optic vesicle growing from the forebrain may be the cause of the reduced size of the eye, and scleral thickening could [entokey.com]
[…] retinal dystrophy has also been reported as a new syndrome. 3 Here we reported a simultaneous occurrence of of RP associated with (out) chronic angle-closure glaucoma in two children from the same Chinese family, which may give clues to understanding the pathophysiology [124.205.33.103]

If glaucoma is diagnosed, there are a number of surgical procedures that the ophthalmologist may recommend to help reduce IOP and prevent damage to the child’s vision. [2020aec.com]
It is the leading cause of preventable blindness worldwide. [tsbvi.edu]
