Abstract
We examined a 14-year-old girl with bilateral hyperplastic persistent pupillary membranes, present since birth, with poor visual acuity. The membranes were excised surgically; visual acuity improved. Extensive persistent pupillary membranes can be removed safely by surgical methods if they are large enough to obscure the pupillary axis and affect visual acuity.Entities:
