Abstract
Recent studies have changed the management of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy. This editorial outlines a new standard. Estimate dose by real weight, staying below 5 mg/kg. Asian patients may show initial damage outside the parafovea. Renal disease, maculopathy, and tamoxifen are major risk factors. Proper screening allows long usage and avoids bull's eye retinopathy.
