What is Coloboma? Doctors Explain

A young woman in Poland is getting attention after speaking out on Instagram with claims that she may be Madeline McCann, the British toddler who has been missing since 2007.

McCann, in case you’re not familiar with her story, disappeared while her family was vacationing at a resort in Portugal. Now, 21-year-old Julia Faustyna says she believes she may be McCann, noting that the two share physical similarities, including a coloboma in their right irises.

“I have similar eyes, shape of face, ears, lips,” Faustyna wrote in one Instagram post. In another, she said that their coloboma is “exactly the same.”
