Lattice dystrophy-like localized amyloidosis of the cornea secondary to trichiasis.

Cornea - 1 Jan 2005

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To report a case of stellate and branching linear corneal stromal amyloid deposits secondary to trichiasis and the use of molecular genetic analysis to exclude lattice corneal dystrophy. METHODS: Case report and review of the literature. A 30-year-old man with a history of chronic ocular irritation was found to have distichiasis, epiblepharon, and unilateral corneal amyloidosis indistinguishable from...
