Aniridia is a rare eye condition in which the iris is partially or completely absent. This can cause the pupil to appear misshapen or displaced. Aniridia is usually present from birth (congenital) and can affect one or both eyes.
Symptoms of aniridia can include:
* Reduced vision
* Glare and light sensitivity
* Nystagmus (rapid, involuntary eye movements)
* Strabismus (crossed eyes)
* A misshapen or displaced pupil
* Absence of the iris
* Glaucoma
* Cataracts
Treatment for aniridia is aimed at improving vision and managing symptoms. This may include:
* Corrective lenses
* Surgery to correct strabismus
* Glaucoma medication
* Cataract surgery
* Low vision aids
Aniridia is a lifelong condition, but it can be managed with proper treatment. Most people with aniridia are able to live full and active lives.
