Case report: We present the case of a 49-year-old woman with an iris, optic nerve and retinal coloboma in her right eye, discovered by chance during a fundus examination for a diabetic retinophaty study.
Discussion: Coloboma is defined as a congenital defect in the uveal tissue and it occurs because of a failure of fusion of an embryonic feature called the intraocular fissure.
