chlorthalidone and Myopia

chlorthalidone has been researched along with Myopia in 10 studies

Chlorthalidone: A benzenesulfonamide-phthalimidine that tautomerizes to a BENZOPHENONES form. It is considered a thiazide-like diuretic.

Myopia: A refractive error in which rays of light entering the EYE parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the RETINA when accommodation (ACCOMMODATION, OCULAR) is relaxed. This results from an overly curved CORNEA or from the eyeball being too long from front to back. It is also called nearsightedness.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To report a novel case of acute bilateral uveal effusions, angle closure, and acute myopia induced by administration of chlorthalidone."3.81Uveal effusion as a mechanism of bilateral angle-closure glaucoma induced by chlorthalidone. ( Pearce, ZD; Siebert, KJ; Singer, JR; Westhouse, SJ, 2015)
" In a second case report we describe, in a 61-year-old patient suffering from aspirin-sensitive asthma, recurrent ciliary body oedema with a marked spastic component which was triggered by the medications acetazolamide, dipivefrine and pilocarpine."3.69Drug-induced ciliary body oedema: a new theory. ( Krieg, PH; Schipper, I, 1996)
"A case report is presented in which an acute, transient myopia of 3 diopters is induced by Hygroton (chlorthalidone), a monosulfamyl diuretic and antihypertensive drug."3.65Drug-induced myopia: a case report. ( Stennis, SD, 1976)
