Description The patient was born two months prematurely (birth weight: 3lb 5 oz) and was in an incubator with oxygen for seven weeks. The corneas were cloudy at birth, but cleared. Then, at age 2 months, he developed rapid opacification of the left cornea ([1]), followed by opacification of the right cornea. The intraocular pressure was considered normal in both eyes. He also had extensive hemangioma of the face, head, and limbs (Sturge-Weber). Bilateral goniotomies were done, but the patient died 5 days later from an obstructed hernia. His eyes were removed post mortem.
