Aicardi syndrome, first described by French neurologist Jean François Marie Aicardi in 1965, is a constellation of features characterized mainly by the triad of early infantile spasms, chorioretinal lacunae, and agenesis of the corpus callosum. The authors describe a 1-year-old child with Aicardi syndrome with previously unreported ophthalmic features of aplasia of the right optic nerve and bilateral iris colobomas.
