What Are the Signs of Toxicity Detected During Ophthalmologic Examinations?
Signs of ocular toxicity may vary depending on the toxic agent involved. Common indicators include:
Conjunctival redness and irritation, often seen with chemical exposure. Retinal changes, such as edema or hemorrhage, potentially caused by heavy metals or solvents. Vision loss or disturbances, frequently associated with methanol or certain drugs. Nystagmus, or involuntary eye movements, which can indicate neurological involvement.
