Abstract

A persistent pupillary membrane (PPM) is a congenital eye condition characterized by the presence of remnants of tissue in the eye that normally regresses during fetal development. A 37-year-old male patient complained of bilateral blurred vision for distance that had been present from childhood and was accompanied by glare and photophobia. On examination, uncorrected distance visual acuity was 20/30 in the right eye and 20/40 in the left eye, and there was no improvement with pinhole. The slit-lamp examination showed PPM with covering pupil partially in both eyes. The management of PPM depends on the severity of the condition and its impact on vision and ocular health.
