    Opaque membranes were found in one of 3,005 cynomolgus monkeys, diagnosed as bilateral persistent pupillary membranes. Further studies will investigate if this condition is hereditary in Macaca fascicularis.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Ophthalmology
    • Primate Research
    • Ocular Pathology

    Context:

    • Examination of 3,005 healthy cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) using ophthalmoscopy.
    • Ophthalmic examination involved topical anesthetic and mydriatic agents.
    • Anesthesia was administered using ketamine hydrochloride.

    Purpose:

    • To screen cynomolgus monkeys for ocular abnormalities.
    • To identify and characterize any pathological findings in the anterior segment of the eye.

    Summary:

    • One monkey presented with bilateral, tan to brown opaque membranes spanning the iris collarette over the pupil.
    • This condition was diagnosed as bilateral persistent pupillary membranes.
    • The affected monkey was otherwise apparently healthy.

    Impact:

    • Identifies a potential hereditary condition in Macaca fascicularis.
    • Highlights the importance of ophthalmic screening in non-human primates.
    • Provides a case study for persistent pupillary membranes in this species.
