title: Atypical presentation of a primary iris cyst.
abstract: Iris cysts are rare clinical occurrences. They are more commonly seen secondary to trauma, medications, or parasitic infestations; or may herald the onset of an intra-ocular malignancy. Primary iris cysts without any clinically detectable aetiology are rare ophthalmic curiosities. The cyst presented here is atypical in its size, shape and location.
