  • Title: Congenital epithelial cysts of the iris stroma.
    Author: Sugar HS, Nathan LE.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1982 May; 14(5):483-5. PubMed ID: 7114681.
    Abstract:
    Although epithelial implantation cysts in the anterior chamber and iris have often been described, spontaneous congenital epithelial cysts of the iris stroma are not common. A cyst large enough to obstruct vision and cause amblyopia was removed surgically from a 6-month-old infant. The presence of goblet cells in th epithelium may be related to the embryologic source or the cells.
