Abstract

A 53-year-old man, to our knowledge the first person described with unilateral Rieger's anomaly, had a prominent anteriorly displaced Schwalbe's ring, broad iris strands inserting into Schwalbe's ring, anterior stromal iris hypoplasia, mild microcornea, and marked astigmatism in his right eye. His left eye was entirely normal.
