Abstract

Background: Several adverse effects (AEs) such as ocular AEs have been reported following systemic consumption of Isotretinoin. Here, we report a case of bilateral Chalazion, Conjunctivitis, and Hordeolum associated with systemic Isotretinoin. Case Report: A 20-year-old girl was treated with oral Isotretinoin because of severe inflammatory Acne, and developed bilateral Chalazion, Conjunctivitis, and Hordeolum about 4. 5 months after initiation of treatment. Two weeks after cessation of oral Isotretinoin, patient’ s eye condition improved. However, after re-initiation of oral Isotretinoin treatment with a reduced dose, her Conjunctivitis relapsed; therefore, the treatment was once again terminated. Conclusion: Since the patient’ s condition was bilateral, recovered after cessation of therapy; and once again, relapsed after re-initiation. It was most likely a complication of the medication and not a coincidence.
