Abstract:
PURPOSE:To report on a case of acute transient myopia associated with ciliochoroidal detachment induced by indapamide. METHOD:Case report. Clinical examination, ultrasonography, and fluorescein angiography were performed during the acute phase of disease and convalescence. RESULTS:After indapamide was discontinued, acute bilateral myopia, which was associated with anterior chamber shallowing and diffuse choroidal thickening, resolved spontaneously 8 days after onset. The initial angiography showed scattered islands of delayed fluorescein filling that disappeared without any permanent change by day 30. CONCLUSION:Indapamide can induce spontaneously resolving transient myopia associated with diffuse choroidal thickening.
