Popis: We describe the clinical course of an 11-year-old girl diagnosed with lipemia retinalis as the presenting sign of diabetes mellitus type 1 with severe secondary hypertriglyceridemia. By performing serial multimodal imaging studies, we provide a comprehensive description of the clinical manifestations associated with severe hypertriglyceridemia to promote recognition of this rare clinical diagnosis.
