The clinical presentation varies with the amount of triglycerides in the blood and completely resolves with lowering triglyceride levels, making this condition transient with no visual symptoms.Case report: A 46-year-old white man presented with lipemia retinalis and, hours later, to the emergency department with acute pancreatitis secondary to hypertriglyceridemia.Conclusion: Lipemia retinalis warrants an immediate complete blood count and lipid panel to determine triglyceride levels with referral to a primary care provider.Lipemia retinalis: A combination of genetics and the American diet and lifestyle - Corrected ProofSamantha L.C.
