This course explores toxic maculopathy associated with hydroxychoroquine and pentosan polysulfate sodium, focusing on key risk factors, appropriate testing strategies, and hallmark features across multiple imaging modalities. Emphasis is placed on interpreting visual fields, OCTs, fundus autofluoresence, and near-infrared imaging to enhance early detection and management.
Learning Objectives:
Upon conclusion of this activity, attendees will be able to:
Identify and describe the risk factors associated with the development of hydroxychloroquine-induced maculopathy
Outline effective testing strategies for early detection of hydroxychloroquine-induced maculopathy
Identify key clinical features of pentosan polysulfate sodium-induced maculopathy
