Sumario:A 14-year-old patient presented to our hospital with dilated pupils and decreased near vision. Complete ocular examination was done and pupil responses to pharmacological agents were evaluated. The patient had bilateral congenital mydriasis. The pupils were mydriatic. At pupil margins there were pigmented rudimentary nipple-like structures and remnants of persistent pupillary membrane. Pupils did not respond to pharmaceutics. The patient was not able to accommodate. Ultrasound biomicroscopy demonstrated hypoplasia of ciliary processes. Congenital mydriasis may be associated with absence of accommodation. Patients with that condition may need near vision correction first.
