Asteroid Hyalosis Characterized by diffuse spherical white opacities stuck to vitreous Unilateral (75-90% ) Etiology ? Calcium-associated phospholipids Presence is obvious upon ocular exam but patients are usually asymtomatic May interfere with retina exam (FA, OCT, AF) Rarely cause visual disturbance and needs Sx
