Management of traumatic tractional corectopia

Abstract

Corectopia is the displacement of the pupil. It can be isolated congenital anamoly or associated with syndromes like Ectopia lentis et pupillae or Axenfeld–Reiger anamoly. [1] Aquired corectopia is often caused by trauma, surgery, or anterior chamber inflammation.[2] It is caused by a fibrous band exerting traction on the iris and may be either stationary or progressive.[2] Treatment is tailored considering the site of traction and associated comorbidities. We present a case of traumatic tractional corectopia and its management.
