description | In most cases, congenital anterior staphyloma presents with a disfigured eye and very poor vision. Only one pediatric case in the literature
was reported as a mild form with a solitary lesion in an otherwise normal eye. We herein report an adult case with two neighboring
congenital anterior scleral staphylomas confirmed with ultrasound biomicroscopic imaging, with no associated ocular abnormalities.
