Iridogoniodysgenesis – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/2030725523

This refers to a spectrum of diseases characterised by malformations of the irido-corneal angle of the anterior chamber of the eye. Iridogoniodysgenesis is the result of abnormal migration or terminal induction of neural crest cells. These cells lead to formation of most of the anterior segment structures of the eye (corneal stroma & endothelium, iris stroma, trabecula).
