HHCS is a rare disease characterized by high serum ferritin levels, congenital bilateral cataracts, and the absence of tissue iron overload. In this case report, we aimed to present a young female patient with a history of cataracts in herself and her family members. Our patient had the dilemma of iron deficiency anemia and hyperferritinemia. As in our patient, patients with HHCS apply to many outpatient clinics and have difficulty in diagnosis. For this reason, we prepared our case to raise awareness.
