  • 1.  Corectopia

    Posted 12 days ago

    I am seeing a 37-year-old patient who noticed an irregular pupil OS while plucking her eyebrows in January. She started tirzepatide 2 months prior which I suspect is unrelated and I could not find any reports of this in PubMed. She also takes spironolactone (for hidradenitis suparativa) and has eczema that is treated with topicals as needed. There is no history of trauma or uveitis. She is certain that it is not congenital.

     

    Exam showed symmetric pupils in light (2 mm) and dark (4 mm) other than the area of corectopia OS superonasally. Both pupils react to light and briskly to near. No RAPD. Slit lamp exam was normal except for a very thin pupillary ruff bilaterally (although she hasn't been dilated yet due to pharmacologic pupil testing). No sectoral iris sphincter palsy with high mag view. MRI of the brain was normal except for pituitary flattening and her exam is otherwise normal.

     

     

    Dilute pilocarpine and apraclonidine tests were negative.

     

     

    I have a photo if someone can tell me how to post it...

     


    Is there anything else I should be looking for?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi Deb I thought it is Friday but it is still Thursday 
    Without any other association it is probably congenital highly improbable it is starting Adie's , thickened ruff is a cause not thinned , I would just look to the angel for any pigment or abnormality , without that I would just follow up 
    Yesterday I had a youngster girl with dilated pupils which is most probably a starting Adie's but in my case she had disc pallor and VA of 1/60 and 6/60 which I am currently investigating and making imaging and systemic work up after Neurologist report said she is completely free , Also she had no significant history at all but sometimes you cannot trust history as parents may have some hidden part of that   
    My case was told to have a pupilloplasty but I refused that as she didn't realise that later on she may have a narrow pupil 
    So I would just watch for multiple visits before even making a final diagnosis

    You didn't mention migraine as a pertinent negative or positive.

    Can you send the photo?
    I would do Gonioscopy and UBM.

    Probably would be reasonable to get specular microscopy of the cornea endothelium to look for ICE syndrome.
