Corneal deposits following topical moxifloxacin use.

Corneal deposits have been reported with numerous topical medications including fluoroquinolones. However, they have not been documented as a side effect of topical moxifloxacin. In this report, we describe the first case of corneal deposits following the use of preservative-free topical moxifloxacin 0.5% eye drops in a 26-year-old male with keratoconus who underwent a unilateral corneal cross-linking. Increased frequency and prolonged instillation of moxifloxacin eye drops led to corneal precipitation in this patient. Complete resolution of corneal deposits occurred four months after drug discontinuation without sequelae.
