Core Tip |
We report a case of binocular vitreous amyloidosis. Eye changes existed in isolation and no systemic lesions were present. Genetic sequencing revealed that the patient was diagnosed with binocular vitreous amyloidosis secondary to the presence of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis associated with a transthyretin Lys55Asn genetic variant. Our study demonstrates that the accurate diagnosis of vitreous amyloidosis is very important and vitrectomy can effectively treat this particular disease phenotype. |
