A 40-year-old female patient complained blurred vision for one year, bilateral diffuse lineal opacity of the corneal stroma was noted and corneal lattice dystrophy was suspected. Penetrating keratoplasty was performed at our hospital and the diagnosis was proved by pathology. The visual acuity was improved post-operatively. The corneal graft remained clear and no recurrence was found after five years follow-up. Two of her sons were noted with the similar corneal change on clinical examination.
