Iridoschisis is a rare disease. The name iridoschisis means separation of the iris into two layers and multiple rupture of the iris fibers. Iridoschis occures during the sixth and seventh decade. The iris stroma is cleaved into two layers: the anterior layer is disintegrated into fibrils floating freely into the anterior chamber, and the posterior layer stays attached to the dilator muscle and to the pigment epithelium. Iridoschisis is usually bilateral. It is often associated with cataract and glaucoma. Therefore, long term and regular follow-up is required. We report a case of a 74 -year-old male who presents an unilateral iridoschisis.
