ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Here we report a case of surgical pupilloplasty in an adult with true polycoria. A 44-year old man was referred to our clinic with a best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 0.5 diopters (D) in his left eye. Biomicroscopy revealed two pupils within a 2.5-mm central zone, with diameters of 1.2 and 1.1 mm. Both pupils had real iris sphincters and responded to light and chemical stimulation. Therefore, we surgically cut the bridge between the two pupils without any intraoperative or postoperative complications. One month after the surgery, BCVA had improved to 0.9 D, and the final pupil was almost round, measuring 2.7 mm in diameter.
RESUMO
RESUMO Relatamos um caso de pupiloplastia cirúrgica em um paciente adulto com policoria verdadeira. Um homem de 44 anos de idade foi encaminhado ao nosso serviço com acuidade visual melhor corrigida (BCVA) de 0,5 em seu olho esquerdo. Biomicroscopia revelou 2 pupilas, dentro de uma zona central de 2,5 milímetros com dimensões de 1,2 mm e 1,1 mm de diâmetro. Ambas as pupilas apresentavam esfíncteres irianos reais que respondiam à luz e a drogas. A ponte entre as 2 pupilas foi cortada cirurgicamente. Não houve complicações transoperatórias ou pós-operatórias. A BCVA melhorou para 0,9, e a pupila ficou quase circunferencial com 2,7 mm de diâmetro, um mês após a cirurgia.
