Bilateral ocular manifestations of Sturge-Weber syndrome: a rare case report

The rare neurocutaneous condition known as Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is characterized by leptomeninges, or angiomas affecting the face, eyes, and brain. We report a newly diagnosed case that came to our institute complaining of a diminution of vision BE that had been going on for the past 1 year. Upon examination, the patient exhibited bluish discoloration of the sclera, an increase in the size of the cornea, and the characteristic port wine stain (PWS) on the face. Intraocular pressure BE was 30 mmHg with an applanation tonometer. The cup disc ratio on fundoscopy was 0.9 RE and 0.8 LE with characteristic glaucomatous disc changes BE. The child was treated with antiglaucoma medications.
