[Ocular manifestation in amiodarone toxicity--case report].
The authors present the case of a patient having both toxic keratopathy and maculopathy after a medication with amiodarone. Some of the ocular damages are irreversible, even while amiodarone medication is stopped, which recommends the screening as an efficient tracking method for ocular reversible injuries, avoiding major loss of visual function.
