An iris cyst is a nonkeratinized squamous epithelial-lined space involving a layer of iris. The presentation of iris cyst can be variable-innocuous or presenting with secondary complications. The identification of whether the cyst is primary or secondary is important. The prognosis of primary iris cysts is good, as the majority does not require treatment and that of secondary iris cysts is much more capricious depending on their presentation. Their optimal management often poses a challenge for ophthalmologists. Here, we will present two cases of iris cysts with diverse presentation along with a review of the literature of this rare clinical entity.
虹膜囊肿是一个非角化鳞状上皮衬里的腔隙，累及虹膜的一层组织。虹膜囊肿的表现可能多种多样——可以是无害的，也可能伴有继发性并发症。明确囊肿是原发性还是继发性很重要。原发性虹膜囊肿预后良好，因为大多数不需要治疗，而继发性虹膜囊肿的预后则因其表现而异，更加多变。对眼科医生来说，其最佳治疗方案常常是一项挑战。在此，我们将呈现两例表现各异的虹膜囊肿病例，并对这一罕见临床病症的文献进行综述。
