Differential Diagnosis
Iris inclusion cyst secondary to traumatic ruptured globe is the most likely diagnosis given the rapid progression and appearance. Other far less likely diagnoses might include proliferation of iris melanocytes following the trauma, or other types of retrocorneal membranes, such as fibrous metaplasia of the corneal endothelium.(1)
