Bilateral ocular coloboma associated with nonsyndromic cleft lip and palate / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

·The authors describe a 2-month-old boy with nonsyndromic cleft lip and palate. On examination, he had bilateral inferior iris colobomas, vitreous veils, optic disc and choroid colobomas. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) revealed bilateral colobomatous microphthalmia, retrobulber cysts and thinned optic nerves. Every infant with cleft lip and palate should be examined by an ophthalmologist to detect possible associated ocular abnormalities.
