Deskripsi
Pigment dispersion syndrome (PDS) can have varied manifestations. Anterior and posterior segment involvement by dispersed pigments was documented in gross pathology and by staining under microscopy. Pigmentary changes in the sclera, cornea, anterior chamber, iris, trabecular meshwork, lens, and retinal pigment epithelium and optic nerve findings were consistent with PDS. External scleral and vitreous pigmentation has never been reported before in the scientific literature. Retinal pigment degeneration and granule dispersion were seen throughout the retina which could be a contributing factor in the etiology of PDS.
