ABSTRACT
Objective: to determine the usefulness of microperimetry and of the optical coherence
tomography in the detection of subclinical retinal damage due to chloroquine.
Methods: prospective, observational and analytical study in patients taking chloroquine,
who were seen at the Neuro-ophthalmology service of "Ramón Pando Ferrer" Institute of
Ophthalmology from September 2010 through October 2011. Forty four eyes were
included. Tests were performed to assess function (visual psychophysics and
microperimetry) and structure (biomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography).
Results: mean age was 43 years with a cumulative dose of 182 g and less than 5 years
taking this drug. There was significant correlation between the cumulative dose of
chloroquine and the following variables: color vision (-0.495, p = 0.001), temporal
peripapillary retinal thickness (-0.353, p= 0.019) and lower (-0.336, p = 0.026), central
macular (-0.652, p = 0.000) and retinal sensitivity by microperimetry (-0.436, p= 0.003)
with functional and structural changes related to the increase in cumulative dose.
Conclusions: it was demonstrated that it is possible to detect early functional retinal
damage by using microperimetry and optical coherence tomography in patients taking
chloroquine, despite normal results of other functional studies and of biomicroscopy. The
combination of microperimetry and optical coherence tomography may be a useful
screening tool for retinal toxicity.
