Abstract
Nonfamilial amyloidosis, a form of primary amyloidosis accompanied by vitreous opacity, is a rare condition. Here, a 50-year-old man developed strand-like opacities in the vitreous of both eyes. Pars plana vitrectomy was performed to improve the patient's vision. The vitreous specimens showed typical light microscopic and ultrastructural features of amyloidosis.Entities:
