[Amyloidosis of the eye combined with other senile pathology].
478 eyes of 313 patients aged from 25 to 90 years and older were investigated (postmortem and surgical material was used). Patients had cataracts, glaucoma, diabetes mellitus. The goal of the study was establishing the amyloid nature of the pseudoexfoliative material (PEM) in the anterior part of the eye. The study showed PEM to be a variety of the amyloid-pseudoexfoliative amyloid (PEA) which was found in 66 (14%) eyes. The localisation and morphology of PEA in various parts of the eye are described in detail. PEA may be the only manifestation of the senile eye amyloidosis, but may be combined with insular amyloidosis of the pancreas.
