M S Insler1, C J Helm.   

Abstract

A 59-year-old man undergoing systemic 5-fluorouracil treatment for metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach developed ocular lesions consisting of bilateral conjunctival ulcers and ulcerative blepharitis leading to ankyloblepharon. Ophthalmologists should be cognizant of potential ocular side effects of chemotherapy, in order to institute appropriate changes in treatment.
