چکیده
Phenothiazines have been associated with various ocular adverse effects, in particular cataract and corneal deposits. Several effects are vision threatening. Awareness of these effects, in particular by Psychiatrists and Ophthalmologist, is essential for prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment. We report two patients presented to us with corneal deposits and lenticular opacities following long term use of Phenothiazines.

Methotrimeprazine-induced Corneal Deposits and Cataract Revealed by Urine Drug Profiling Test
Two schizophrenic patients who had been taking medication for a long period presented with visual disturbance of 6-month duration. Slit-lamp examination revealed fine, discrete, and brownish deposits on the posterior cornea. In addition, bilateral star-shaped anterior subcapsular lens opacities, which were dense, dust-like granular deposits, were noted. Although we strongly suspected that the p...
متن کاملScleral gel contact lenses in treatment of dry eyes.
In the past I5 years various types of scleral contact lenses have been developed for the treatment of pathological conditions of the cornea and conjunctiva. Our previous investigations found the hydrophilic corneo-scleral lens very effective in the treatment of various inflammatory and degenerative corneal changes (Krejci, I970, 1971). In our present study the Czech hydrophilic corneo-scleral c...

THE closure and healing of the wound in cataract surgery is a most important factor in the success of the operation, and various suturing techniques have been evolved. The present communication attempts to evaluate the results in 668 cases operated on from January to November, 1961. The same pre-operative preparation, operative technique, and post-operative treatment were used, and the same thr...
متن کاملEvaluating the Performance of 2,3-dihydro-1H-phenothiazine-4(5aH)-one as an Ionophore in Construction of a Cation Selective Electrode by Density Functional Theory
In this study, the complexation of 2,3-dihydro-1H-phenothiazine-4(5aH)-one with 14 various cations were investigated by density functional theory. At the outset, the structures of the ligand, different cations and their derived complexes were optimized geometrically. Then, IR calculations were performed on them in order to acquire the formation enthalpy and Gibbs free energy values. The obtaine...

In this research, the complexation of a new recently synthesized phenothiazine with 10 different metals was evaluated by Density functional theory. At the first step, the structures of 6,15-diazabenzo[a][1,4]benzothiazino[3,2-c]phenothiazine, cations and their complexes with the mentioned material were optimized geometrically. Then, IR calculations were performed on them to obtain the values of...
