I t is important to widen our knowledge of the late course of the retinal complications that may develop during the treatment of patients, usually suffering from lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis, with synthetic antimalarials; this can only be accomplished by means of follow-up examinations. Classics in this field are the publications of Hobbs et al. which appeared in 1959 and 1961 (12,13) and the important review of Bernstein (4) . The most important symptoms and signs in chloroquine retinopathy are subjective disturbances of vision, diminished visual acuity, defects in the visual fields, and vascular constriction and pigmentary changes in the fundi. The latter are commonly central, and have an appearance that has given rise to the descriptions “bull’s eye” and “doughnut”, a dark centre is surrounded by a paler zone which in turn is encircled by a darker, pigmented band. Disturbances of colour vision have been described (20, 1, 18), as have electroretinographic (ERG) and electro-oculographic (EOG) changes (2, 3, 9, 10, 15, 19, 20). Retinopathy has occasionally been associated with corneal deposits (10, 11, 12, 16, 21, 24, 26). Impaired light perception has been reported in certain particularly severe cases by Hobbs ( 12, 13,16) and others. Data concerning incidence vary, Hobbs gives a figure of 2.9 % (13).
