Familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP), a disorder inherited in autosomal dominant fashion, is characterised by systemic accumulation of polymerised mutated amyloidogenic TTR (ATTR) in peripheral nerves and in organs. 1 We report two patients with FAP ATTR Y114C (a point mutation, from tyrosine to cysteine, at codon 114) who developed diffuse retinal haemorrhages immediately after uncomplicated trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (MMC).
