Case , the daughter. Slit-lamp examination shows the presence of few and very tiny patchy stromal opacities, without stellate and linear opacities at onset (a). IVCM scans show the presence of granular hyperreflective spots without complex deposits among the subepithelial nerve fibers and circular hyperreflective deposits (amyloid) surrounding an internal hyporeflective core (hyaline) in the anterior stroma (b and c). Time domain OCT corneal scans provided a wide visualization of the cornea revealing the topographic localization and the depth of corneal deposits (d).
