Abstract

Crystalline deposition in the cornea can be an early manifestation of paraproteinemia, which may paralleldisease activity. Local treatment with superficial keratectomy orpenetrating keratoplasty provides symptomatic butonly transient improvement. Treatment of systemic disease often leads to resolutionof corneal involvement.
