    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Clinical Case Study

    Background:

    • Cornea plana is a rare congenital condition characterized by a flattened cornea.
    • It can be associated with other ocular anomalies and visual impairment.

    Observation:

    • A case of cornea plana with its characteristic clinical findings is presented.
    • Ultrasonography confirmed normal axial length of the globe in this patient.

    Findings:

    • The case highlights typical clinical manifestations of cornea plana.
    • Diagnostic imaging confirmed normal axial length, differentiating it from conditions with shortened globes.

    Implications:

    • Cornea plana, though rare, should be included in the differential diagnosis for patients presenting with small eyes or suspected microcornea.
  • Early recognition and diagnosis are crucial for appropriate management and patient counseling.
