Abstract
Oxaliplatin, a platinum-based chemotherapy agent, is commonly used in the treatment of various malignancies. Common adverse effects involve neurological, hematological, gastrointestinal system, and hypersensitivity, and rarely ocular changes have also been reported. We describe the case of a 71-year-old male, who developed reversible ocular toxicity after receiving oxaliplatin for treatment for pancreatic cancer.Entities:
