Abstract
We present the rare case of an 18-year-old medically free male who had a history of decrease in vision in the left eye (LE) in the last 4 years. On examination, best-corrected visual acuity was 20/20 in the right eye (RE) and counting fingers 3 feet in the LE. Intraocular pressure was 34 and 40 mmHg in RE and LE, respectively. Fundus examination showed cupping of 0.7 on the RE and 0.9 on the LE. Gonioscopy revealed bilateral angle closure with a double-hump sign. Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed multiple ciliary body cysts replacing ciliary body sulcus space bilaterally.
