Abstract

Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly which includes facial port-wine stains with ipsilateral intracranial, hemangioma, ipsilateral choroidal hemangioma, and congenital glaucoma. The syndrome is thought to result from dysmorphogenesis of cephalic neuroectoderm. We report a case of Sturge-Weber syndrome combined with congenital ocular anomaly such as phthisis bulbi, corneal opacity, and iris anomaly.
