PURPOSE: To report the adverse effects of topical tosufloxacin in two patients with corneal deposits in compromised cornea.
CASE REPORT: Tosufloxacin was administered topically to a 13-month-old girl after penetrating keratoplasty in the left eye. Three days posttransplantation, corneal precipitations appeared and thereafter continuously increased. An 80-year-old woman, who maintained postoperative multiple topical medications including tosufloxacin, presented dense white deposits in the left eye a month postoperation. In both cases, the deposits showed a granular pattern and were limited to areas of large epithelial defects. After discontinuation of tosufloxacin, the deposits slowly decreased and completely disappeared in a few weeks. In the former case, corneal re-epithelialization was significantly disturbed and resulted in anterior stromal opacity, whereas visual acuity and visualization of the retina were severely interfered in the latter case.
CONCLUSIONS: Tosufloxacin can precipitate especially on compromised corneal surfaces. Therefore, topical tosufloxacin should be avoided in patients who are at risk of losing corneal surface integrity.
