Congenital iris colobomas are usually located inferiorly. They are often associated with Crouzon's syndrome (Fig. C13). Lid colobomas are commonly associated with Treacher-Collins syndrome. Coloboma of the optic disc is characterized by a glistening, white excavation, decentred inferiorly. It is sometimes confounded with glaucomatous cupping, especially when it is accompanied by a field defect. The condition is often associated with microphthalmia and several syndromes (e.g. Edward's syndrome, Patau's syndrome)." >Fig. C13 Coloboma of the irisPatient discussion about colobomaQ.
