Treatment options for Peters anomaly vary depending on the degree of corneal and lenticular involvement. The authors report a novel surgical approach for patients with type I Peters anomaly and glaucoma. It involves ab externo circumferential trabeculotomy, simultaneous lysis of iridocorneal adhesions at the time of trabecular cleavage, and optical iridectomy. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2020;57:e25-e29.].
