Abstract

Two patients with hypertension (patient 1, female, aged 48 years; patient 2, male, aged 37 years) developed binocular vision blur 17 and 14 days after taking indapamide tablets (2.5 mg/d), respectively. Slit-lamp examination showed shallow binoculus anterior chamber. Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed binocular ciliary body detachment. Ophthalmic ultrasonic examination showed mild thickening of choroid in both eyes. The binocular ciliary body detachment and transient refraction were considered to be related to indapamide. Three days after indapamide withdrawal and receiving hormonotherapy, the 2 patients′ binocular ciliary bodies were resetted, anterior chamber depth returned to normal, and the visions returned to the premorbid state. Key words: Indapamide; Eye diseases, ciliary body
