Spectral domain optical coherence tomography for early detection of retinal alterations in patients using hydroxychloroquine

Spectral domain optical coherence tomography for early detection of retinal alterations in patients using hydroxychloroquine

Objective: To determine whether early toxic effects from hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) could be detected by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) before symtomatic visual loss occured. Materials and Methods: Fifteen subjects with a history of the chronic use of hydroxychloroquine monother...
