Abstract

6 cardiac patients were found to present various degrees of corneal involvement following systemic treatment with amiodarone. The clinical pattern of the keratopathy, its benign course and the pathophysiology are discussed. Lacrimal insufficiency or incomplete blinking seem to contribute to the severity of the keratopathy.
