• Atypical iris coloboma o occur in areas other than the inferonasal quadrant o not usually associated with posterior uveal colobomas. o probably result from fibrovascular remnants of the anterior hyaloid system and pupillary membrane ❜

  • Unilateral or bilateral / sporadic or hereditary
  • Pupil rarely exceeds 2 mm in diameter, is often eccentric
  • Reacts poorly to mydriatic drops
