Congenital bilateral folds in Descemet’s membrane with high astigmatism
We present the case of a boy with congenital bilateral folds in Descemet’s membrane, causing high astigmatism and myopia. There are multiple causes of folds and tears in Descemet’s membrane. In our case, the most likely origin is the mother’s prolonged labor, although a severe car accident of the mo...

description | We present the case of a boy with congenital bilateral folds in Descemet’s membrane, causing high astigmatism and myopia. There are multiple causes of folds and tears in Descemet’s membrane. In our case, the most likely origin is the mother’s prolonged labor, although a severe car accident of the mother at the gestational age of 27 weeks as the cause of these folds cannot be entirely excluded. |
