  • Title: An experimental study of quinine blindness.
    Author: Buchanan TA, Lyness RW, Collins AD, Gardiner TA, Archer DB.
    Journal: Eye (Lond); 1987; 1 ( Pt 4)():522-4. PubMed ID: 3443206.
    Abstract:
    An experimental model of quinine induced blindness is presented. Electrophysiological, angiographical and morphological examinations were made. The occurrence of blindness and any recovery from blindness was dependent upon the dose of quinine taken. As no evidence of acute retinal ischaemia was found it is concluded that quinine is retinotoxic.
