Abstract

Persistent pupillary membrane (PPM) is a developmental anterior segment anomaly that could lead to visual problems by obscuring the pupillary distance. Beside the conservative approach including mydriasis and occlusion therapy, surgical and Nd:YAG laser options are used in the treatment of PPM. In this paper, a case of bilateral PPM treated with Nd:YAG laser in a 25 years old patient is presented.

Özet

Persistan pupiller membran (PPM) pupiller aralığı örterek görme problemlerine yol açabilen gelişimsel bir ön segment anomalisidir. PPM tedavisinde midriazis ve kapama tedavisini içeren konservatif yaklaşımın yanında cerrahi ve Nd:YAG lazer tedavileri uygulanmaktadır. Bu yazıda 25 yaşında bir hastada Nd:YAG lazer ile tedavi edilen bilateral PPM olgusu sunulmaktadır
