Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by the dysgenesis of the anterior segment along with some systemic abnormalities such as dental and facial bone defects. Its incidence is thought to be 1 in 200,000. Treatment is predominantly the management of glaucoma and is mostly medical but can be surgical in refractory cases. Here, we describe the case of a 35-year-old female patient who presented with co-existing vernal keratoconjunctivitis and ARS. The treatment was more challenging as we had to manage two conditions simultaneously.
阿克森费尔德-里格尔综合征（ARS）是一种罕见的常染色体显性疾病，其特征为眼前节发育异常，并伴有一些全身异常，如牙齿和面部骨骼缺陷。据认为其发病率为二十万分之一。治疗主要是针对青光眼的处理，大多采用药物治疗，但难治性病例可采用手术治疗。在此，我们描述了一名35岁女性患者的病例，该患者同时患有春季角结膜炎和ARS。由于我们必须同时处理两种病症，治疗更具挑战性。
