title: Iris nevus syndrome.
abstract: We present a case of iris-nevus or Cogan-Reese syndrome with its characteristic pathological findings. Although a rare entity, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of heterochromia associated with elevated intra-ocular pressure. To avoid unnecessary enucleation, it should not be confused with diffuse iris melanoma.
