[Toxic retinopathies].
Among the drugs, which are topically administered, only epinephrine may produce retinal changes (macular oedema) in aphakic patients. Among the drugs, which are systemically administered, some immunodepressors, ethambutol, indomethacine, digitalis, but particularly chlorpromazine, thioridazine, quinine and chloroquine may produce toxic retinopathies. Concerning the intraocular metallic foreign bodies, siderosis is much more toxic for the retina than chalcosis.
