[The cornea and synthetic antimalarials].
The main targets of antimalarial ocular toxicity are the cornea, ciliary body and retina. In sixty patients treated with chloroquine (Nivaquine) 73% showed keratopathy. The clinical features and clinical course of this keratopathy and its relationship with retinopathy were described. In contrast with retinopathy, keratopathy is not contraindication to antimalarial treatment.
