[Acute and bilateral uveitis secondary to moxifloxacin]
Abstract
Case report: We report a case of a 77-year-old woman with an anterior acute bilateral uveitis and pigmentary dispersion after treatment of a neumococic pneumonia with moxifloxacin. Her response to treatment was good but she presented as a result of treatment abundance of pigment over all the structures of the anterior segment.
Discussion: Many drugs can produce uveitis. After Med-line revision, we can not find any previously reported case of anterior Uveitis associated with fourth generation quinolones.
