Indomethacin retinopathy: case report and review
Abstract
The case of a 33-year-old man with probable indomethacin retinopathy is presented. The relevant literature is reviewed and the differences between our case and those previously reported are noted. Our patient appears to have suffered severe and irreversible ocular damage due to the very high dose of indomethacin ingested over a prolonged period.
