Abstract:
Cladribine has been shown to lower relapse rates and decrease disease progression in patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). Reported adverse effects with use of cladribine include lymphopenia, neutropenia, and infections. Ocular complications have not previously been described with cladribine. We report the case of a patient developing visual symptoms and a large retinal cotton wool spot in association with initiation of cladribine therapy.
