Popis: Asteroid hyalosis is a rare degenerative vitreous disease and it is generally asymptomatic. Its etiology is still unknown. We report a case of asteroid hyalosis in a 59-year-old diabetic patient with peripheral neuropathy related to POEMS syndrome (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M component protein, skin changes). The aim of this work is to report the unusual association of asteroid hyalopathy with POEMS syndrome.
