Background: Pigment dispersion syndrome (PDS) is quite common yet underdiagnosed. The condition itself is associated with the incidence of pigmentary glaucoma (PG) which poses a fatal consequence on the individual’s sight. Thus, it is important to establish early detection and administer appropriate initial therapy to prevent further vision loss.
Case Presentation: A 44-year-old male was admitted due to worsening vision loss. History of wearing glasses, contact lenses, or eye trauma were denied. Patient was born with speech and hearing impairment along with pale colored left eye iris.
Summary: PDS has several complications including pigmentary glaucoma (PG) or pigment-related ocular hypertension (POHT). Imaging analysis with optical coherence tomography (OCT) examintation will be able to diagnose PDS from other diseases and might also aid as a monitoring device for associated glaucoma. The aim of treatment for PG itself is to stabilize IOP and controlling pigment dispersion.
