Synchysis scintillans is a degenerative condition of the eye, characterized by the appearance of yellow-whitish glowing crystals in vitreous, which are composed of cholesterol. They float in the anterior chamber of the eye and in the liquefied vitreous. Patients complain of motley floaters in their visual field, while the ophthalmologist notes them in the anterior and posterior segment of the eye. The condition is usually bilateral. Differential diagnosis includes asteroid hyalosis, emulsification of silicone oil, and stagnation of perfluorocarbon. Diagnosis is proved by the slit-lamp examination and ocular ultrasound. Fluorescein angiography (FAG) is not recommended and cannot assist in a diagnosis. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) B-scans can visualize hyperreflective dots in the vitreous.
