A case of unusual persistent pupillary membrane with total anterior capsular pigmentation.
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science 2018 June 30
A 5-year-old castrated male poodle presented with blindness. Ophthalmic examinations including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, tonometry, ultrasonography, and electroretinography were performed. The anterior lens capsule of the right eye (OD) was totally pigmented, with persistent pupillary membranes (PPMs). Ultrasonography of the same eye showed severe lens atrophy and retinal detachment. Electroretinography revealed flat a- and b-waves in OD, but normal amplitudes in the left eye (OS). No ocular defects were detected in OS except mature cataract. In this case, it was determined that hypermature cataract with PPMs caused both lens-induced-uveitis and total anterior lens capsule pigmentation. This condition needs to be differentiated from absent pupil. Notably, PPMs with total anterior lens capsular pigmentation are extremely rare in dogs.
