Abstract
A seven-month-old female domestic shorthaired cat was presented for buphthalmos in the
right eye and corneal cloudiness in the left eye. Full ophthalmic examinations were
performed for both eyes and enucleation was done for the right nonvisual eye. Congenital
glaucoma caused by anterior segment dysgenesis was confirmed for the right eye. In the
left eye, slit-lamp examination revealed focal corneal edema with several iris strands
from iris collarette to the affected posterior corneal surfaces. Circular posterior
corneal defect was suggested to be the cause of edema. Goniodysgenesis, additionally, was
identified. Taken together, the diagnosis of Peters’ anomaly which is a subtype of
anterior segment dysgenesis was suggested in the left eye.
