Dense yellowish streaky deposits in the vitreous body were found in a 66 year old woman who was admitted because of a high degree of bilateral visual disturbances. Gel electrophoresis and biopsies of the skin and mucous membrane confirmed the suspicion of systemic amyloidosis with involvement of the eyes. Geneological considerations and examination of other members of the family showed that the disease is dominantly inherited.
