Crystalline retinopathy association with flupentixol intake.

AIM: To report the first case report of an association between flupentixol and crystalline retinopathy.

STUDY DESIGN: Observational, Case report.

CASE REPORT: We report a case of crystalline retinopathy in a 36-year-old female who was suffering from depression and being treated with tablet flupentixol in a cumulative dose of 4380 mg over two years. Fundus examination of both eyes showed multiple, discrete, yellowish white refractile intraretinal deposits over the macula and peripapillary region, located in the inner retina as shown by OCT.

CONCLUSION: We propose regular retinal evaluation in patients with chronic flupentixol intake and larger studies to establish causal relationship between flupentixol and crystalline retinopathy.
