title: [Ocular side effects of drugs].
abstract: Drug-induced side effects manifested by the human eye are characterised by the specific anatomical, histological and functional features of the eye. Such ocular changes may arise after local or systemic drug application. The following article outlines the clinically relevant common drug-related side effect on the lids, cornea, conjunctiva, lens, retina, uvea, and the optic nerve, as well as effects on the intraocular pressure, refraction and accommodation.
