Abstract
Although corneal endothelial toxicity studies are reassuring that intracameral moxifloxacin is safe, several studies suggest moxifloxacin may be toxic to iris melanocytes and retinal vascular cells.[11]-[13] Topical preparations of moxifloxacin penetrate the cornea and achieve higher aqueous concentrations than older, commercially available fluoroquinolones. Bilateral uveitis associated with fluoroquinolone therapy. Moxifloxacin concentration and proteomic analysis of aqueous humor in human uveitis associated with oral moxifloxacin therapy.
