Abstract

We report the case of a 14-year-old female patient who attended the ophthalmology service due to her low visual acuity with her aerial correction, detecting a bilateral persistent pupillary membrane on examination. We describe the clinical picture, its embryologic origin, and the various possible procedures according to its severity.
