Abstract
RH is a 6-month-old baby who was noted by his mother to have a white pupillary reflex in the left eye. He was referred to a pediatric ophthalmologist, who suspected PHPV and suggested surgical removal of the lens with the parents. The child was then referred for ultrasound to eliminate significant vitreous pathology that would require the assistance of a vitreoretinal surgeon.
