Iridocorneal Endothelial Syndrome with Coexisting Macular Edema and Neurosensory Detachment: An Unusual Case Report.

Abstract

The iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome is a sporadic, unilateral condition characterized by abnormalities of the cornea, anterior chamber angle, and iris affecting middle-aged women (3rd to 5th decade). It consists of three variants: progressive iris atrophy, Cogan-Reese syndrome-diffuse nevus or iris nodules, and Chandler syndrome-corneal endothelial abnormalities leading to corneal edema. This syndrome has an abnormal corneal endothelial cell layer (proliferative endotheliopathy), which migrates across the angle and onto the surface of the iris. It is a potentially blinding condition as a result of secondary glaucoma and/or corneal decompensation. Although few case reports have shown an association of ICE syndrome with macular edema; however, our case was unique in the sense that it was associated with neurosensory detachment (NSD). It can be suggested that PG analogs are not a good idea to be prescribed for secondary glaucoma management in patients with ICE syndrome as it can predispose to the development of macular edema with NSD.
