A 87- years- old man was presented with decreased vision and abnormal iris change to our clinic. Examination revealed visual acuity as 0.1 and intraoculer pressure was 10 mmHg in both eyes. Central corneal thickness was 445 micron on the right eye and 467 micron on the left eye. Corrected intraocular pressure was 14.5 mmHg in the right eye and 13.5 mmHg in the left eye. In slit-lamb examination, bilateral grade 3 nuclear sclerosis and asymmetric pupil abnormalities were observed. In gonioscopic examination, bilateral anterior synechiae and posterior embryotoxon were detected. In funduscopic examination, cup/disc ratio was 0.3 and macula was normal in both eyes. In detailed systemic examination there was no problem except aort insufficiency and dental abnormalities.

In this case report, ocular and systematic abnormalities were presented in a patient with Axenfeld- Rieger syndrome with no symptoms until advanced ages.
