Abstract

Primary congenital glaucoma is an uncommon pediatric ocular disease contributing to a disproportionately high percentage of childhood blindness worldwide. This case report describes bilateral primary congenital glaucoma in monozygotic twins who first presented to an ophthalmologist in Ethiopia at 6 years of age. Both had severe, protracted disease, with only moderate improvement after surgical intervention. Copyright (c) 2010, SLACK Incorporated.
