Dr Ian Coulson & Ian Wallwork (15:00)
In this interview, we look at the adverse ocular side effects of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, which are anti-malarial medications used to treat autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Here, Ian Wallwork talks to consultant dermatologist Dr Ian Coulson to remind us how optometrists can play a role in monitoring and detecting these ocular side-effects, before moving on to consider the optometrist’s duty of care with regard to adnexal and facial skin lesions.
