A, An 87-year-old woman with bilateral posterior polymorphous amyloid degeneration showing deep corneal stromal punctate/droplike lesions (arrowheads) on right eye retroillumination. B, Histopathological examination disclosed numerous amorphous, deep corneal stromal deposits (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×40). C and D, Congophilic deposits with apple-green birefringence (Congo red, original magnification ×100). E, Deposits stained for amyloid AP (immunoperoxidase, original magnification ×400), but not for amyloid AA and AL. F, Electron microscopy, clusters of 9-nm diameter, nonbranching filaments with no periodicity (original magnification ×129 300).
