Case report We present the case of a newborn male whose only anomaly was an anophthalmia in his left eye. Complementary explorations were carried out to discard associated systemic pathologies. Discussion Anophthalmia/microphthalmia is the most frequent congenital eye malformation in the newborn. Its prevalence in Spain for the past twenty years was 21.34/100,000 newborn. The most usual presentation is as part of syndromes, appearing only exceptionally in an isolated way. It is important for the ophthalmologist to be aware of this pathology since the early treatment, because the corresponding orbital prosthesis may help to avoid, at least in part, dysmorphogenesis and derived aesthetic problems (Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol 2002; 77: 571-574).
