Abstract
We describe a case of hyperplastic persistent pupillary membrane (HPPM) with good visual acuity associated with angle-closure glaucoma. Both gonioscopy and Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed a narrow, occludable angle. A diagnosis of subacute angle closure was made and Nd:YAG iridotomy was undertaken in both eyes. Patients with HPPM may be at an increased risk of angleclosure glaucoma.
