Risperidone-related bilateral cystoid macular edema: a case report

BACKGROUND: A report of the second known case of bilateral cystoid macular edema in a patient taking risperidone. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 69-year-old African American woman using risperidone who presented with worsening visual acuity and was found to have bilateral cystoid macular e...

description BACKGROUND: A report of the second known case of bilateral cystoid macular edema in a patient taking risperidone. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 69-year-old African American woman using risperidone who presented with worsening visual acuity and was found to have bilateral cystoid macular edema. Upon decreasing the dosage of risperidone, the cystoid macular edema resolved and visual acuity markedly improved. Fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography were used to document the severity of cystoid macular edema and subsequent resolution after decreased dosage of risperidone. CONCLUSION: The documentation of a patient who developed cystoid macular edema associated with risperidone usage indicates that it may be beneficial to monitor patients taking risperidone for the development of maculopathy.
