ABSTRACT
Various systemic and topical medications can induce ocular and periocular cutaneous adverse effects(AEs), ranging from mild to severe.These AEs may lead to ocular surface(OS) damage and, in some cases, life-threatening complications. Drug-induced ocular adverse reactions are generally classified into two primary categories: toxic reactions and/or allergic hypersensitivity reactions, which can be IgE or non-IgE-mediated. Systemic antibiotics, antivirals, and anticonvulsants can trigger adverse reactions that may involve the OS. Drugs like antihistamines, beta-blockers, antipsychotics, antidepressants, and isotretinoin are linked to dry eye disease.Topical treatments-including antibiotics, antiglaucoma medications, preservatives, contact lens solutions, and cosmetics-may elicit allergic or toxic ocular diseases. Recent evidence implicates ocular surface AEs in patients undergoing biological treatments for oncological diseases and atopic dermatitis. Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, used in the treatment of several cancers, have been associated with conjunctivitis, meibomitis, dry eye, periocular skin changes, and thiromegaly. Similarly, dupilumab, the first biologic approved for treating moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, has also been linked to OS disease with blepharoconjunctivitis.This position paper provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical presentations, diagnostic approaches, and treatment strategies for drug-induced ocular AEs, integrating the latest literature and clinical guidelines.

1| Introduction
With the increasing global exposure and prolonged use of medi-cations, there has been a corresponding rise in the risk of devel-oping drug hypersensitivity reactions(DHRs)[1,2], including those affecting the eye and the ocular surface(OS). DHRs are known to affect approximately 7% of the general population.However, drug-related ocular reactions remain poorly defined regarding their epidemiology, phenotypes, and endotypes.The Ocular Allergy Working Group(OAWG) previously classified ocular allergies as either IgE-mediated or non-IgE-mediated diseases, without specifying a classification for ocular drug re-actions[3]. In light of recent international consensus on drug allergies and updated classification of cutaneous DHRs[2], we propose adopting the term“ocular DHRs”(ODHRs) to describe objectively reproducible ocular symptoms or signs initiated by
exposure to a defined drug, at a dose typically tolerated by a normal individual, and which clinically resemble allergic reac-tions[2].ODHRs may present with distinct phenotypes, variable onset, and severity(Figure 1). These reactions can be catego-rized as:
1. Periocular(cutaneous)/eyelid hypersensitivity reactions:this category encompasses both IgE-and non-IgE-mediated responses, manifesting as eyelid urticaria, hyper-acute eyelid edema, with or without conjunctival swelling.
2. Delayed reactions: these involve the skin of the eyelid,the lid margin, and/or the conjunctiva, potentially lead-ing to eyelid exanthemas/eczema, blepharitis, follicu-lar conjunctivitis, cicatrizing conjunctivitis, and ocular pseudo-pemphigoid.
The cornea may be indirectly affected by the release of epithelial-toxic mediators, lid margin abnormalities, lim-bal cell deficiency, or cicatrizing phenomena. In some cases,direct corneal involvement may occur through immune-complex deposition.
Different factors contribute to the risk of ODRHs including drug-related factors, genetic predisposition, comorbidities,and local factors. Both topical agents(such as over-the-counter eye drops, antigucoma drugs, antibiotics, eyedrop pre-servatives, ointments, moisturizers, disinfectants, contact lens solutions, cosmetics) and systemic medications have the potential to induce various phenotypes through mecha-nisms such as IgE- and T-cell mediated responses, local tox-icity due to nonimmune cell-receptor interactions, immune complex-mediated reactions, and cytotoxic IgG-mediated re-actions[4-6].
The most severe forms of ocular involvement may occur in drug-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions(SCARs) including Stevens-Johnson syndrome(SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis(TEN), and SJS/TEN overlaps. New phenotypes such as the dupilumab-induced ocular surface disease(DIOSD)[7] and ocular AEs associated with newer biological treatments have emerged.
This paper aims to provide an updated overview of the clinical features, mechanisms, diagnostic methods, and treatment op-tions in OHRDs. We aim to support ophthalmologists, allergists,dermatologists, pediatricians, and internists who frequently prescribe these drugs or manage related complications.
2| Materials and Methods
With this paper, the Task Force on“Drug-Induced Periocular and Ocular Surface Disorders" approved by the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology(EAACI) pro-vides an expert-driven synthesis rather than guideline-level rec-ommendations, based on a combination of published evidence and expert consensus. A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed and Medline(supplementary meth-ods section). Given the heterogeneity of the topics and the low quality of evidence, and since the manuscript aimed to synthe-size current evidence and raise awareness rather than provide formal guidance, grading was not conducted. The development of this position paper included several rounds of consultation through virtual and in-person meetings. Position statements were formulated for each chapter and voted on. Due to the lim-ited availability of high-quality evidence, the statements repre-sent an expert consensus.
3| Systemic Medications and Ocular Surface Disorders
The interaction between systemic medications and ocular health has become an increasingly important focus in clini-cal practice. Many commonly prescribed drugs are associated with a wide range of ocular adverse effects(AEs), some of which may result in permanent visual loss. Twenty-two
of the 100 most frequently used systemic drugs in the United States have the potential to cause dry eye disease(DED)[8].Drug molecules can accumulate in the cornea, lens, and ret-ina, leading to a variety of symptoms associated with drug toxicity[9]. While many ocular AEs caused by systemic med-ications are reversible, delayed detection and management may result in irreversible ocular damage and visual impair-ment. Early recognition and appropriate treatment are crucial in preventing long-term complications.
3.1| Factors Increasing Risk of Ocular Complications
Pre-existing conditions such as end-stage renal disease, liver disease, diabetes, pregnancy, or glaucoma represent an in-creased risk for ocular damage; therefore, systemic medications may further exacerbate these conditions. Clinicians must be aware of these risks and closely monitor patients to facilitate the early detection and treatment of ocular complications. Age is a risk factor for DED because of a reduced basal tear production and potentially decreased drug clearance rates. The typical use of multiple medications in older subjects may increase the sus-ceptibility to ocular AEs[10]. However, it may be challenging to determine whether ocular pathology is due to the underlying disease or the medication used to treat it.
3.2| Mechanisms of Systemic Drug-Induced Ocular Disorders(Table 1)
Some drugs are known to cause specific AEs such as corneal deposits in patients taking amiodarone or tamsulosin-induced intraoperative floppy iris syndrome[9, 11-13]. Corticosteroids can reduce tear production and alter the immune response, in-creasing the risk of ocular infections. While topical and perio-ular corticosteroids carry the highest risk for cataracts and glaucoma, systemic corticosteroids can have similar effects,particularly when used at moderate to high doses over extended periods[14]. Although no formal screening guidelines exist,routine ocular evaluations are recommended for patients with chronic corticosteroid treatment.
3.3| Diagnosis and Management
A thorough patient history, including current and past medi-cation use, is essential for establishing potential links between drug use and ocular surface disease(OSD). In the suspect of an ODRH, dose adjustment, drug discontinuation, or switch to a safer alternative is recommended. The management of DED in-volves artificial tears, lubricating ointments, and punctal plugs.Autologous serum eye drops or anti-inflammatory drugs like cy-closporine or liftegrast may be necessary in more severe cases.Warm compresses, lid hygiene, and oral omega-3 fatty acids may be effective in meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD). If isotreti-noin is the cause of MGD, dose adjustment or drug discontin-uation is necessary. Topical corticosteroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs) can help to manage OSDs,but should be used with caution because of the risk of inducing other AEs.
TABLE 1| Mechanisms of ocular adverse effects induced by systemic drugs.
|Mechanism|Examples of drugs or drug families|Clinical manifestations| |---|---|---| |1. Reduced tear production: Systemic drugs with anticholinergic effects inhibit parasympathetic stimulation of the lacrimal glands, reducing tear production and increasing hyperosmolarity of the tear films, which incites ocular inflammation|Antihistamines, antidepressants (e.g., tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors),β-blockers, diuretics, corticosteroids|Dry eye disease: Dryness, burning, itching, foreign body sensation, and fluctuating vision worsened by prolonged visual tasks(e.g., reading or screen use) Keratoconjunctivitis sicca: A severe form of dry eye causing corneal/conjunctival damage, with photophobia, hyperemia, and potential corneal ulceration| |2. Altered tear film composition: Some medications alter the lipid or mucin layers of the tear film, causing instability with increased tear evaporation and less lubrication|Isotretinoin, hormone replacement therapy, oral contraceptives, and certain antipsychotics|Evaporative dry eye: Excessive tearing, dryness, foreign body sensation and intermittent blurred vision, which clears with blinking Meibomian gland dysfunction: Drugs like isotretinoin can affect the meibomian glands, causing thickened or absent meibum secretion, leading to gland blockage, inflammation and worsening of evaporative dry eye| |3. Direct toxicity: Some drugs directly damage correal or conjunctival epithelial cells, disrupting integrity and causing inflammation, cell death, or ulceration|Chemotherapy agents (5-Fluoro uracil), antivirals (cidofovir),anti-tuberculous, antimalarial, antigliacaus (β-blockers, prostaglandins), bisphosphonates|Corneal erosions or ulcers: Sharp pain, photophobia, decreased vision acuity, with superficial punctate keratitis or severe ulceration Conjunctivitis: Red,irritated eyes with burning, itching,discharge, or conjunctival swelling| |4. Inflammatory responses: Certain drugs trigger immune-mediated inflammation of the conjunctival or cornea through hypersensitivity or immune dysregulation|Nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs, immunomodulators(tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors, corticosteroids),antibiotics (sulfonamides, beta lactams), alopurinol, antiepileptics|Allergic conjunctivitis: Redness, itching, watery discharge, eyelid swelling, and potential conjunctival scarring if persistent Keratitis: Painful, red eyes with gritty sensation; untreated cases may lead to corneal ulcers and vision loss Stevens-Johnson syndrome: Severe drug reaction causing extensive ocular damage, conjunctivitis, corneal scarring, and possible blindness| |5. Altered blood flow: Some medications affect ocular blood vessels, causing ischemia or altered permeability, leading to decreased nourishment of the ocular surface,tissue damage, and inflammation|Vasoconstrictive agents, systemic beta-blockers, and chemotherapeutic agents|Conjunctival ischemia: Pale conjunctiva, discomfort, dryness, or grittiness Corneal neovascularization: Abnormal blood vessel growth in the cornea causing blurred vision and scarring| |6. Impact on tear gland function: Some medications cause structural damage or dysfunction in lacrimal glands, leading to a long-term decrease in tear production due to gland toxicity or fibrosis following chronic use of these drugs|Chemotherapy agents, radiotherapy, and immunosuppressive drugs|Chronic dry eye disease: Persistent dry eye symptoms resistant to standard treatments due to irreversible gland damage. Patients may need long-term use of artificial tears, punctual plugs, or other therapies| |chronic use of these drugs|||
Paradoxical reflex tearing due to eye irritation: excess tears temporarily restore the tear film, but evaporation soon exceeds basal production, leading to repeated tearing.
3.4| Screening and Collaborative Care
For certain medications, regular screening protocols have already been established. For instance, due to the risk of retinal toxicity,the American Academy of Ophthalmology recommended screen-ing for hydroxychloroquine[15]. Regular ophthalmologic evalua-tion is recommended every two months in the case of ethambutol treatment[16], every 6-12months to detect early signs of cataract and increased intraocular pressure corticosteroids-induced.
4| Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions(SCARs)and the Ocular Surface
Among drug-related SCARs, SJS and TEN are most commonly associated with ocular involvement. Eyelid blisters and con-junctivitis have also been occasionally reported in drug re-action with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms(DRESS),generalized bullous fixed drug eruption(GBFDE), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis(AGEP)[17]. Risk
factors include drug-related factors(specific medications),individual genetic predisposition(HLA allele variations), co-morbidities(underlying health conditions), and local factors(environmental influences)[4]. NSAIDs, anti-epileptic drugs, sulfonamide antibiotics, and allopurinol are major triggers of SCARs, some of which are associated with specific HLA class I alleles such as HLA-B*58:01, HLA-B*13:01, and HLA-B*57:01[18, 19]. In SJS/TEN, HLA-mediated drug presentation acti-vates oligonocal CD8+ cytotoxic T cells[20]. However, HLA alleles alone are insufficient; granulysin, TNF-α, mitochon-drial apoptosis[21], neutrophil extracellular traps[22], and necroptosis also contribute to keratinocyte death[20, 21, 23].Impaired T-regulatory cell function[24] and JAK/STAT path-way activation are further potential mechanisms and thera-peutic targets[25].
The severity-of-illness score for SJS and TEN(SCORTEN) does not correlate with ocular complications, suggesting that the clinical and pathogenic connections between the OS and skin involvement in SCARs remain poorly understood[17].
4.1| Ophthalmic Manifestations in SJS/TEN
4.1.1| Acute Phase
Ocular involvement may range from conjunctival hyper-emia to near-total conjunctival and corneal epithelial defects.Approximately 50%-80% of cases exhibit ocular manifestations including bilateral mucopurulent conjunctivitis, inflammatory pseudomembranes, early symblephon formation, punctate epithelial keratitis, corneal ulceration, and corneal perforation[17, 26, 27](Figure 2A,B). Eyelid margin involvement is also common, presenting as meibomitis and/or epithelial sloughing[26,27].
4.1.2| Chronic Phase
The severity of chronic complications depends on the extent of acute phase involvement. Inflammation and ulceration of the conjunctiva result in scarring and symblepharon in 41%-71%of patients, severe DED in 45%-56%[28, 29]. Conjunctival scar-ring reduces goblet cell density, while lacrimal duct fibrosis leads to aqueous DED. Meibomian gland involvement further exacerbates tear film dysfunction. Eyelid abnormalities in-clude entropion, ectropion, trichiasis, distichiasis, and punc-tal stenosis. Lid margin keratinization, a hallmark feature of SJS, induces blink-related microtrauma[17, 27], resulting in chronic inflammation, repeated corneal abrasions, scarring,vascularization, and limbal stem cell deficiency, leading to cor-neal blindness[30].
4.2| Management
A treatment algorithm emphasizing the concept of a“window of opportunity" has been suggested, highlighting the importance of early and regular ophthalmic examinations tailored to the disease stage and specific ocular findings[27].
4.2.1| Acute Care
Ophthalmologic evaluation, including fluorescein staining,should begin in the Intensive Care Unit within the first 2-6days after onset and continue throughout the resolution of skin and mucosal ulcerations[27]. For patients with conjunctival hyper-emia without epithelial defects, treatment includes topical anti-biotics, corticosteroids, and intensive lubrication. In cases with epithelial defects involving the conjunctiva, cornea, or lid margin,early amiotic membrane transplantation(AMT) has shown fa-vorable outcomes[31,32], due to its immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties that promote epithelial healing. Topical corticosteroids, used cautiously in the presence of epithelial de-fects, help control inflammation and prevent further OS break-down. In corneal epithelial defects, bandage contact lenses may be useful(Figure 2C,D). Saline rinses, frequent lubrication, and pseudomembrane debridement are also recommended[27,31,32].Ensuring adequate lid closure is critical, as lagophthalmos and corneal exposure can exacerbate OS damage.
There is little consensus on the optimal drug management and evidence-based recommendations of SJS and TEN acute phases[33]. The use of anti-TNF has been associated with lower mor-tality compared to corticosteroids. The effectiveness of intra-venous immunoglobulin and cyclosporine remains uncertain[34]. Since the JAK/STAT pathway was identified as a poten-tial therapeutic target, a short course of JAK inhibitors signifi-cantly improved TEN patients without AEs or mortality[25].
4.2.2| Chronic Care
Management of the chronic phase focuses on OS stabilization and visual rehabilitation.
(a) Ocular surface stabilization. Punctal cautery combined with intensive lubrication has been effective in stabilizing the OS and improving tear film in severe DED[35]. Mucous mem-brane grafting can reduce blink-related microtrauma from the lid margin keratinization, improving OS integrity and vision(Figure 2E,F)[35,36]. Timely correction of trichiasis,entropion,and ectropion is essential to prevent ongoing inflammation and OS breakdown[35, 36]. Short courses of topical antibiotics may also help control recurrent inflammation by addressing the altered ocular microbiome[37]. Systemic immunomodula-tors have not consistently improved visual outcomes or ocular complications and remain controversial[38,39]. Desensitization to the culprit drug is strongly contraindicated in SJS,TEN,and DRESS by the EAACI Drug Hypersensitivity Interest Group[40], despite isolated reports of success in sulfamethoxazole-induced SJS cases[41].
(b) Visual rehabilitative procedures should only be considered once the OS is stabilized to reduce postoperative complications.Due to the underlying immune dysfunction often associated with DED and eyelid abnormalities, corneal and limbal stem cell transplants carry a high risk of rejection and are generally not recommended. Cataract surgery is always a challenge be-cause of corneal haze, vascularization, and fornix shortening.Visual outcomes can be improved with scleral lenses in eyes

with partially scarred or keratinized corneas[35]. In patients with end-stage OSD, keratoprosthesis remains the only viable option[42-45](Table S1)(Figure 2G,H).
5| Ocular Adverse Effects of Biological Treatments
Biological agents, including monoclonal antibodies(mAB), cy-tokine inhibitors, and other targeted immunotherapies, have been associated with ocular AEs, which may occur directly or indirectly through systemic immune modulation. The most re-ported ocular complications include DED, OSD, uveitis, optic neuropathy, and retinal toxicity.
5.1| TNFα Inhibitors
TNFα inhibitors are mAB that function by competitively pre-venting TNFα from binding its receptors. Etanercept, inflix-imab, adalimumab, certolizumab pegol, and golimumab have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(RA), inflammatory bowel disease, ankylosing spon-dylitis, psoriasis, and Behcet's disease. Although TNFa inhib-itors are generally well tolerated and typically associated with minor side effects, several serious AEs have been reported.These include infections(reactivation of latent tuberculosis),lymphomas, congestive heart failure,cytopenia, demyelinating disorders, lupus-like syndromes, and induction of autoantibod-ies. Anterior uveitis has been identified as the most common
ocular AE. Of the abovementioned TNFa inhibitors, etanercept is the most likely of this class to cause drug-induced uveitis[46].Only a limited number of cases described peripheral corneal in-filtrates, cicatricizing conjunctivitis, and severe blepharitis with ectropion associated with adalimumab[47-50], which regressed following the drug discontinuation.
5.2| IL-6 Inhibitors
Tocilizumab(TCZ), a humanized mAB targeting both soluble and membrane-bound IL-6, has been approved for the treat-ment of RA and both polyarticular and systemic juvenile idio-pathic arthritis(JIA)[51]. It is effective in 76% of patients with severe JIA-associated uveitis unresponsive to conventional immunosuppressive therapies[52]. AEs include viral conjunc-tivitis with bullous impetigo[53] and peripheral ulcerative keratitis(PUK), a rare and destructive inflammatory corneal disease[54-57].
5.3| Anti-IL4/IL-13R
Dupilumab, a mAB inhibiting IL-4 and IL-13 signaling path-ways, is approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis(AD), asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, and eosinophilic esophagitis. In patients with AD, dupilumab has been associated with a specific ocular AE named DIOSD or dupilumab-associated OSD(DAOSD),with blepharoconjunctivitis as a common clinical manifesta-tion[58].
5.3.1| Factors Increasing the Risk of Ocular AEs
AD patients are already at an increased risk of developing OSD[59]. DIOSD is among the most frequently reported AEs in real-world studies involving dupilumab-treated AD patients[58] with a much higher incidence than in patients treated for other indications[60, 61]. In randomized controlled trials(RCTs), the incidence of DIOSD among AD patients ranged from 8% to 22%[60], while prospective observational stud-ies reported higher incidences(19%-32%)[62, 63]. In con-trast, trakolinumab(anti-IL-13 mAB) has been associated with lower rates of ocular AEs(2%-13%)[64]. Risk factors for DIOSD are history of allergic/atopic conjunctivitis and blepharitis[62],“any other eye disease” and concurrent use of topical ocular treatments[62]. In a prospective study, includ-ing baseline ophthalmological assessment, DED was the only significant ocular risk factor[63]. Other risk factors include severe AD, periocular eczema, erythroderma, elevated serum levels of IgE, and of Thymus and activation-regulated chemo-kine(TARC/CCL17)[65].
5.3.2| Mechanisms of Ocular AEs and Manifestations
The exact pathophysiology of DIOSD is unclear. The pre-vailing hypothesis involves the imbalance between Th2 and Th1/Th17 pathways, as evidenced by the reported tear cyto-kine profiles in AD patients with and without DIOSD[66].
IL-13-mediated conjunctival goblet cell dysfunction may also contribute to decreased mucin production and tear film ho-meostasis[67]. Other proposed mechanisms include super-infection with Demodex mites, OX40 ligand activation, and goblet cell depletion, suggesting similarities between DIOSD and DED[7].
5.3.3| Clinical Manifestations
DIOSD closely resembles atopic keratoconjunctivitis(AKC) with less severe corneal involvement. Signs and symptoms include ocular and periocular itching and burning, dryness, mucous discharge, conjunctival hyperemia, palpebral papillary hyper-trophy,limbal inflammation with Trantas-Horner's dots, MGD and evaporative DED, lid margin blepharitis, and eyelid derma-titis(Figure 3A-C). Corneal involvement typically manifests as superficial punctate keratopathy. The severity and presentation can vary significantly between individuals, ranging from mild DED symptoms to isolated periocular dermatitis, conjunctival inflammation, or a combination of all signs. While symptoms may improve over time(usually months), inflammatory flares can occur following dupilumab administration. Conjunctival scarring has been rarely reported. Although chronic ocular symptoms can affect quality of life(QoL), long-term prognosis is generally favorable, with uncommon corneal complications.
5.3.4| Management
Eyelid dermatitis is typically managed with emolliers, top-ical corticosteroids, and calcineurin inhibitors(tacrolimus ointment)[68]. Ocular involvement requires artificial tears,antihistamine or mast cell stabilizer eye drops, and eyelid hygiene(warm compresses and massage). Short-term use of ocular topical corticosteroids may be necessary during acute exacerbations. In more persistent/severe cases, cyclosporine or tacrolimus eye drops may be useful(Figure 3D,E). In re-fractory cases, therapeutic strategies include extending the interval between dupilumab injections or switching to alter-native biologics such as trolokinumab or JAK inhibitors[69].There are no data on re-introduction of dupilumab after its discontinuation due to uncontrolled DIOSD. In real-world practice, most specialists prefer to switch to another treatment and not risk a recurrence.
6| Ocular Adverse Effects in Cancer-Targeted Therapy
Unlike conventional chemotherapy, cancer-targeted agents(CTAs) selectively disrupt molecular pathways crucial for tumor growth and metastasis, often through mABs and antibody-cytokine fusion proteins[70-72]. While these therapies reduce systemic toxicity, they can cause ocular AEs needing prompt recognition and management[73-78](Table S2). The incidence and severity of ocular AEs depend on the specific agent, dos-age, and treatment duration. Mechanistically, these effects may result from disruption in eyelash follicular cycling, immune system overactivation, elevated levels of inflammatory cyto-kines, disruption in the maintenance of interstitial pressure,

deposition of therapeutic agents within the corneal epithelium,and off-target toxicity.
6.1| Signal Transduction Inhibitors(Table S3)
Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors(EGFRI) are widely used in treating solid tumors including non-small cell lung, col-rectal, head and neck, breast, and pancreatic cancers[79]. Two main classes exist: mAB and tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKI).Reported ocular surface AEs are trichomegaly, trichiasis, bleph-aritis, MGD, DED, conjunctivitis, and keratitis(Figure 4A,B)[80-96]. Inhibition of the EGFR signaling in the hair follicle sheath disrupts the normal hair follicle growth cycle, leading to eyelash changes. Suppression of corneal epithelial cell pro-liferation impairs tissue regeneration and healing, increasing
susceptibility to environmental insults(e.g., dryness, particulate matter).
BCR/ABL, c-kit, and PDGFR TKI(Imatinib) are used in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia and gastrointestinal stromal tumors[73]. Common ocular AEs are periorbital edema(up to 70%),epiphora(20%), and conjunctival hemorrhage(11%)(Figure 4C,D)[73, 97-102]. Periorbital edema is attributed to dermal dendrocytes in the periocular soft tissue, which ex-press imatinib targets such as c-kit and PDGFR. By inhibiting PDGFR, imatinib may reduce interstitial pressure and enhance trans-capillary fluid transport.
Multitarget TKI vandetanib inhibits EGFR, VEGFR, and the RET protooncogene and is used in rare cases of ad-vanced medullary thyroid cancers. Its accumulation in the

basal corneal epithelium has been associated with vortex keratopathy[95].
Erdafitinib, a TKI of FGFRs 1 to 4, is indicated for the treatment of locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Reported ocular surface AEs are DED, conjunc-tivitis, keratitis, cataracts, trichiasis, corneal ulceration, and MGD[103].
Perifosine, a PI3K/Akt/mTOR inhibitor, is used in colorectal can-cer and multiple myeloma and was shown to cause peripheral,ring-shaped, superficial corneal stromal infiltration and ulcers resembling autoimmune keratitis, typically responsive to topical corticosteroids[104, 105].
6.2| Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors(ICIs)(Table S4)
ICIs are mAB targeting CTLA-4, programmed-death protein-1(PD-1), its ligand PD-L1, and LAG-3[70-72, 74, 75]. Ocular AEs occur in approximately 1% of patients within weeks to months of therapy initiation[106]. The most commonly reported AEs are DED, conjunctivitis, and corneal pathologies, especially in pa-tients treated with PD1/PD1-Linhibitors[107-109].DED appears to result from the production of autoantibodies targeting the lac-rimal gland, as well as sarcoid-like granulomatous inflamma-tion driven by CD8+ T-cell infiltration and IL-2 production.ICIs can induce persistent corneal epithelial defects, corneal melting,and perforation, attributed to immune checkpoint dysregulation
on the cornea, leading to uncontrolled T-cell hyperactivity,inflammatory cytokine release, autoantibody production, im-mune complex deposition, stromal inflammation, and keratoly-sis[71,74,110-119]. Additionally, ICIs increase the risk of solid organ and corneal graft rejection(20%-40%)[120, 121].
6.3| Antibody-Drug Conjugates(ADC)(Table S5)
ADCs combining mAB with cytotoxic agents(payload) via chem-ical linkers are approved for the treatment of various solid and he-matological cancers[122]. Ocular AEs include DED, conjunctivitis,and corneal abnormalities(microcyst-like corneal epithelial cysts(MEC), superficial punctate keratitis, and keratoconjunctivitis,limbal stem cell deficiency, and neuropathy)[77,123-126]. These AEs are largely attributed to off-target toxicity. Proposed mecha-nisms include suboptimal linker stability, receptor-mediated and nonspecific endocytosis, as well as the bystander effect[127].
6.4| Management
A baseline ophthalmologic examination is recommended be-fore initiating CTAs. Most AEs are often mild and reversible
with dose adjustment. EGFRI-induced eyelash changes can be managed with lid hygiene, lash trimming, lubricants, topical antibiotics, or immunomodulators. Severe cases may neces-sitate bandage contact lenses, electrolysis, laser treatment,cryotherapy, or surgical excision of the abnormal eyelashes.DED symptoms are commonly managed with preservative-free(PF) artificial tears, while moderate to severe cases and corneal complications may require topical corticosteroids and cyclosporine/tacrolimus. Severe corneal AEs related to ICIs may require additional autologous serum, vitamin C, oral doxycycline, and discontinuation of ICIs in refractory cases.In cases of corneal perforation, corneal gluing,AMT, corneal crosslinking, or keratoplasty may be required. Corneal graft rejection during ICI therapy can often be managed with cor-ticosteroids but may recur with ongoing therapy. Periorbital edema associated with imatinib may improve with dietary sodium restriction, corticosteroids, and diuretics, though sur-gical excision of skin and fat may be required in persistent or disfiguring cases. Some cases may progress unfavorably,potentially necessitating modification or discontinuation of oncologic therapy. Early recognition and close collaboration between oncologists and ophthalmologists are crucial to man-aging these complications while maintaining effective cancer treatment.

Tear film dysfunction triggers biological cascades that perpetuate a vicious cycle of neurogenic ocular surface inflammation and further tear film impairment[136].(3) Conjunctival and corneal epithelial cell damage: preservatives and drugs induce a concentration-dependent decrease in cellular viability, increase apoptosis, and oxidative stress resulting in proinflammatory ef-fects,cytokine release, and increased receptor expression of chemokines and cytokines[138, 139].(4) Conjunctival immune-mediated inflammation:Th1 and Th2 cytokine profiles are involved, indicating a mixture of allergic and toxic mechanisms[140].(5) Corneal nerves neurotoxicity: preserva-tives and drugs may also exhibit neurotoxic effects on trigeminal nerve endings[141, 142].

The clinical relevance remains unknown in most cases.
Reported fragrances/mosetics are kathon, lyral, Oakmoss, isoeugenol, benzylsaliacylate, and hydroxycitronella.
Other reported preservatives chlorphenes, ethylhexylglycerin, parabens, kathon CG[153], and pentylene glycol[164];antibiotics(neomycin and bacitracin) are also used as preservatives.
7| Drug-Related Blepharoconjunctivitis: Topical Drugs and Preservatives
Topical ophthalmic medications(TOM) are frequently asso-ciated with eyelid dermatitis(Figure 4E, F), as the main clini-cal presentation[128] and, less frequently, with conjunctivitis[129, 130]. Differentiating irritant from allergic contact derma-titis is essential. The natural clearance of allergens by tear flow and the reduced capacity of the OS to develop allergic responses may contribute to the lower prevalence of allergic contact bleph-aroconjunctivitis when TOM are suspected. Mydriatic agents are the most potent sensitizers, followed by antibiotics, anti-glacoma medications, and preservatives(Table S6).
7.1| Preservatives in Eyedrops
Preservatives are added to eyedrops to prevent microbial con-tamination after opening. Preservatives belong to various chem-ical families including mercury derivatives, alcohols, parabens,EDTA, and chlorhexidine. Quaternary ammonium compounds are mainly used due to low allergenic potential and good safety profiles. Benzalkonium chloride(BAK) is an alkylbenzyl-dimethylammonium chloride mixture of C12 and C14 chains,commonly used at concentrations ranging from 0.004% to 0.02%. Although BAK is a well-known irritant, it is rarely rec-ognized as the primary allergen responsible for contact derma-titis[131, 132]. In diseases requiring long-term treatments such as DED, allergic conjunctivitis, or glaucoma, preservatives may cause significant AEs. Considering the treatment goals, AEs in-cluding stinging, burning, irritation,dryness, or less frequently,conjunctivitis, blepharitis, or corneal damage are often underes-timated even though they may impair QoL and reduce treatment adherence[133,134].
7.2| Mechanisms of Toxicity
TOM may exert allergic, toxic, or immuno-inflammatory ef-fects, interacting chemically with different ocular components,inducing:(1) damage to the lid skin and meibomian glands[135];(2) disruption of the tear film lipid layer, through detergent
tensioactive effects, decreased aqueous secretion, and/or goblet cell destruction enhancing chronic inflammation[136, 137];(3)conjunctival and corneal epithelial cell damage and increased expression of chemokines and cytokines[138-140];(4) con-junctival immune-mediated inflammation through allergic and toxic mechanisms[140];(5) corneal nerve neurotoxicity[141, 142](Figure 5).
7.3| Anti-Glaucoma Medications and Antibiotics
Anti-glaucoma treatments are often administered over decades.While RCTs show relatively good tolerance, observational real-world studies consistently report a higher incidence of OSD[143, 144]. Approximately 50% of glaucoma patients experi-ence DED symptoms, with 20%-30% of them presenting severe conditions, much higher than the general elderly population(Figure 4E). Allergic pleharoconjunctivitis may also be caused by active pharmaceutical ingredients, such as timolol or brimo-nidine, whose effects on the OS may interact with the trabecu-lar meshwork and intraocular pressure control[145, 146].
Topical antibiotics are widely used for the treatment of OS in-fections or perioperative prophylaxis. Aminoglycosides, par-ticularly neomycin, gentamicin, and tobramycin, are most frequently involved in ODHRs[130].
7.4| Recommendations for Management
The subtraction strategy(removing the offending agent/s), if possible, is the primary treatment. However, identifying the causative drug can be challenging, especially when:(a) symp-toms appear long after treatment initiation;(b) multiple medica-tions are used concurrently;(c) the OS is already impaired;(d)stopping treatment may endanger vision.
Tear substitutes may help to alleviate symptoms with the ad-dition of topical corticosteroids during acute inflammation.Given BAK's dose-dependent toxicity, reducing the number of preserved eyeds can reduce AEs[143, 147]. In glaucoma, PF formulations have been developed across multiple drug classes.

Laser trabeculoplasty or surgery may be considered when OS health and QoL are severely impaired. Low-toxicity preserva-tives(polyquad) are now available, significantly reducing ocular damage[139, 148].
8| Cosmetic-Related Blepharoconjunctivitis
Cosmetics are widely used throughout the world and fre-quently cause AEs such as allergic contact dermatitis[149],particularly in women[150]. Occupational exposure is a major risk factor. The incidence of contact dermatitis varies between countries, influenced by product availability and differing regulations. In the EU, cosmetic regulation follows the pre-cautionary principle, requiring pre-market safety assessments and restrictions based on hazard profiles. In the USA, reg-ulation under MOCRA relies more on post-market surveillance-lance and adverse event reporting to trigger regulatory action[149,151,152].
8.1| Mechanisms and Clinical Manifestations
Cosmetics can lead to frequent AEs induced by physical trauma,chemical irritation or toxicity,infections,or disruption of the tear film,often leading to OSD[149,153]. Eye cosmetics commonly cause eyelid contact dermatitis and are frequently associated with blepharoconjunctivitis, which may have an immune-mediated basis. Eyelid contact dermatitis is more fre-quently reported than conjunctivitis, with responsible aller-gens different from those affecting other skin areas[154, 155].Common allergens include metals(nickel), fragrances, and preservatives, particularly methylisothiazolinone(MI) and
methylchloroisothiazolinone, which have shown rising sensi-tization rates(Table 2). This led to the withdrawal and later ban of MI in stay-on cosmetic products in the EU and a lim-itation of 15 ppm use concentration in wash-off products[165].Fragrances,preservatives,and metals can be found in a variety of cosmetic products(Table S2). Cosmetic procedures, such as eyelid tattooing, eyelash dyeing, blepharon-pigmentation, and eyelash extensions, have become increasingly popular. Dyes used in eyelash treatments often contain p-phenylene diamine and black henna, which can trigger ocular allergic reactions and damage. The glue used in eyelash extensions is primarily cyanoacrylate-based, containing latex and ammonia, and is known to emit high levels of formaldehyde[153, 166].
8.2| Diagnosis
A detailed patient history is crucial for diagnosis including the recent introduction of new cosmetic products or the renewal of a previously used item. Patch tests(open or closed, depend-ing on the ingredients) may identify the causative allergen(s)[149,156]. Proper allergen concentration is essential to avoid false positives and false negatives[167,168]. Where standard patch testing is inconclusive, repeated open application tests and provocative use tests may help assess clinical relevance[169,170].
8.3| Management
Effective treatment requires strict avoidance of the causative agent and, if possible, finding alternatives. Emolients are key in maintaining skin barrier integrity and should be routinely used.
If contact dermatitis does not respond to standard treatment,topical corticosteroids should be considered, but prolonged use should be avoided. Topical tacrolimus may be an effective alter-native. Systemic corticosteroids should be reserved for short-term use and avoided whenever possible[171].
9| Conclusions
The main clinical, diagnostic characteristics, and manage-ment approaches statements for the different ocular drug hypersensitivity reactions reviewed reached final 100% con-sensus agreement by the TF members in 15/17 of them. Areas of partial disagreement primarily reflected disparities in ac-cess to specific treatment options across countries. For in-stance, while preservative-free eyesd are considered the gold standard for long-term use, their higher cost and limited availability may render them impractical in some healthcare settings(Table 3).
Management of ocular drug hypersensitivity requires a mul-tidisciplinary approach. As the range of immune-modulating therapies continues to expand globally, clinicians must be vigilant against about their potential ocular adverse effects. Proactive identification, early ophthalmologic referral, and tailored ther-apeutic strategies are essential to preserving ocular surface integrity.

| Mechanism | Examples of drugs or drug families | Clinical manifestations |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Reduced tear production: Systemic drugs with anticholinergic effects inhibit parasympathetic stimulation of the lacrimal glands, reducing tear production and increasing hyperosmolarity of the tear films, which incites ocular inflammation | Antihistamines, antidepressants (e.g., tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors),β-blockers, diuretics, corticosteroids | Dry eye disease: Dryness, burning, itching, foreign body sensation, and fluctuating vision worsened by prolonged visual tasks(e.g., reading or screen use) Keratoconjunctivitis sicca: A severe form of dry eye causing corneal/conjunctival damage, with photophobia, hyperemia, and potential corneal ulceration |
| 2. Altered tear film composition: Some medications alter the lipid or mucin layers of the tear film, causing instability with increased tear evaporation and less lubrication | Isotretinoin, hormone replacement therapy, oral contraceptives, and certain antipsychotics | Evaporative dry eye: Excessive tearing, dryness, foreign body sensation and intermittent blurred vision, which clears with blinking Meibomian gland dysfunction: Drugs like isotretinoin can affect the meibomian glands, causing thickened or absent meibum secretion, leading to gland blockage, inflammation and worsening of evaporative dry eye |
| 3. Direct toxicity: Some drugs directly damage correal or conjunctival epithelial cells, disrupting integrity and causing inflammation, cell death, or ulceration | Chemotherapy agents (5-Fluoro uracil), antivirals (cidofovir),anti-tuberculous, antimalarial, antigliacaus (β-blockers, prostaglandins), bisphosphonates | Corneal erosions or ulcers: Sharp pain, photophobia, decreased vision acuity, with superficial punctate keratitis or severe ulceration Conjunctivitis: Red,irritated eyes with burning, itching,discharge, or conjunctival swelling |
| 4. Inflammatory responses: Certain drugs trigger immune-mediated inflammation of the conjunctival or cornea through hypersensitivity or immune dysregulation | Nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs, immunomodulators(tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors, corticosteroids),antibiotics (sulfonamides, beta lactams), alopurinol, antiepileptics | Allergic conjunctivitis: Redness, itching, watery discharge, eyelid swelling, and potential conjunctival scarring if persistent Keratitis: Painful, red eyes with gritty sensation; untreated cases may lead to corneal ulcers and vision loss Stevens-Johnson syndrome: Severe drug reaction causing extensive ocular damage, conjunctivitis, corneal scarring, and possible blindness |
| 5. Altered blood flow: Some medications affect ocular blood vessels, causing ischemia or altered permeability, leading to decreased nourishment of the ocular surface,tissue damage, and inflammation | Vasoconstrictive agents, systemic beta-blockers, and chemotherapeutic agents | Conjunctival ischemia: Pale conjunctiva, discomfort, dryness, or grittiness Corneal neovascularization: Abnormal blood vessel growth in the cornea causing blurred vision and scarring |
| 6. Impact on tear gland function: Some medications cause structural damage or dysfunction in lacrimal glands, leading to a long-term decrease in tear production due to gland toxicity or fibrosis following chronic use of these drugs | Chemotherapy agents, radiotherapy, and immunosuppressive drugs | Chronic dry eye disease: Persistent dry eye symptoms resistant to standard treatments due to irreversible gland damage. Patients may need long-term use of artificial tears, punctual plugs, or other therapies |
