Limited information is known about the extent of canthaxanthin crystalline retinopathy on the retinal layers. The authors describe a 51-year-old woman who was taking canthaxanthin for tanning purposes for 7 years. Three years after cessation of this agent, she presented with asymmetric crystalline retinopathy affecting both eyes. She was lost to follow-up, and upon returning 4 years later, the crystalline retinopathy persisted but the number of crystals had decreased. Using swept-source optical coherence tomography, the authors showed that the crystalline retinopathy affected all retinal layers. In addition, retinal pigmented epithelial detachments were present suggesting persistent damage caused by the canthaxanthin. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2020;51:727-731.].
关于角黄素结晶性视网膜病变在视网膜各层的程度，目前所知有限。作者描述了一位 51 岁女性，因美黑目的服用角黄素长达 7 年。停止该药物 3 年后，她出现双眼不对称性结晶性视网膜病变。她失访，4 年后复诊时，结晶性视网膜病变仍存在，但晶体数量减少。应用扫频源光学相干断层扫描，作者发现结晶性视网膜病变累及所有视网膜层。此外，还存在视网膜色素上皮脱离，提示角黄素引起的持续性损伤。[眼科手术激光成像视网膜。2020;51:727-731.]。
