Rieger's syndrome which is a congenital progressive, autosomally dominant, ophthalmic anomaly has certain associated somatic dentofacial and systemic features. These extra dentofacial and systemic findings can play very important role in diagnosing this syndrome so as to prevent the ocular complications. This article reports such a case in a 20-yr-old woman and discusses somatic features along with the clinical importance of early diagnosis.
