Drug-Induced Ocular Toxicity

Drug-Induced Ocular Toxicity is a research topic within Ophthalmology. Science Explorer counts 8k research works in it since 1950. 11.6% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on the ocular toxicity and retinal disorders associated with medications such as chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, tamoxifen, and ethambutol. It covers topics such as retinopathy, maculopathy, optic neuropathy, and cardiomyopathy induced by these drugs. The papers also discuss screening guidelines, imaging techniques like multifocal electroretinography and optical coherence tomography (OCT), and the implications for rheumatology care.

How concentrated that is

The same countries as shares of everything the list above accounts for. A node where two countries do two thirds of the work and one spread evenly across twelve read alike as a ranking and not at all alike here.
