Initial diagnosis is by an ophthalmologist.
The diagnosis needs to be confirmed and clarified through genetic testing.
Patients should then be checked annually by an eye specialist for issues such as glaucoma and cataract and keratopathy. Low vision clinics can also be useful.

In my case, it was detected at birth in the first revision in the same hospital.
The specialist is an ophthalmologist.
It is easy to realize if you have aniridia is something that looks quickly at the look in the eyes.
The problem is that there are still doctors who do not know very well what it is.( doctors of family medicine, non-specialists
