  • Title: [Adverse ocular effects to systemic drug therapy].
    Author: Czakó C, Sándor G, Horváth H, Szepessy Z, Nagy ZZ, Kovács I.
    Journal: Orv Hetil; 2020 Jun; 161(23):951-961. PubMed ID: 32453698.
    Abstract:
    Systemic medications of various diseases can have adverse effects on the eye that range from asymptomatic lesions to potentially blinding complications such as toxic retinopathy and optic neuropathy. In the course of ophthalmological screening, with the early detection of toxic effects, the majority of drug-induced eye disorders can be prevented and even be reversed. Our review focuses on major drugs with common and significant ocular side effects. Physicians prescribing medications need to be keenly aware of ocular toxicity risks and the importance of regular screening. Orv Hetil. 2020; 161(23): 951-961.
