Three siblings with ectopia lentis were examined for associated abnormalities. Case 1 had Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly and retinal detachment. Case 2 had Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly, ciliary staphyloma, and glaucoma. Case 3 had no associated ocular abnormality. The parents had normal eyesight. This is the first report of ectopia lentis associated with Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly. The mode of inheritance is likely autosomal recessive.
