Key Points

The aim is to highlight the diagnostic challenges and management of lipemic aqueous humor in the context of hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus.
Case report of a 26-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes and hyperlipidemia presenting with vision loss.
Initial management included irrigation, intravitreal antibiotics, corticosteroids, mydriatics, and metabolic control.
Follow-up after treatment assessed visual acuity and ocular stability.
Visual acuity improved from 20/400 to 20/70 by Day 3 and 20/20 by Day 6.
Severe hyperglycemia (33.79 mmol/L) and hypertriglyceridemia (23.71 mmol/L) were noted pre-treatment.
