Optical coherence tomography characteristics in hydroxychloroquine retinopathy and the correlations with visual deterioration in Taiwanese
In Taiwanese patients, HCQ retinopathy predominantly manifests with pericentral lesions, while isolated parafoveal lesions are rare as an initial presentation. RPE disruption, rather than EZ disruption, appears to be the primary determinant for visual deterioration in this population.
