Abstract

Purpose of review: Cancer immunotherapy is one of the most emerging and rapidly growing fields.Ocular side effects associated with these therapies are common and can be present in up to 70% of patients.The cornea may be involved in different pathogenic mechanisms triggered by different immunotherapeutic agents, and corneal disease varies from mild symptoms to severe corneal ulceration and melting with visual loss.We aimed to review the incidence, mechanism, and management of ocular surface side effects in cancer patients receiving immunotherapy.

Recent findings: With the recent use of immunotherapeutic agents in cancer patients, in particular immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, ocular surface and corneal involvement are common side effects.These patients can be at risk of sight threatening complications that warrant prompt diagnosis and careful monitoring and management.

Summary: Immunotherapy- related corneal complications in cancer patients are associated with a decreased quality of life. Prompt recognition and an interdisciplinary approach between ophthalmologists and oncologists are crucial to handle immune related ocular adverse events in these patients, in order to maintain ocular surface integrity and avoid a vision threatening complication.

抗癌生物制剂对眼表的不良影响。

综述的目的：癌症免疫疗法是最新兴、发展最迅速的领域之一。与这些疗法相关的眼部副作用很常见，多达70%的患者会出现眼部副作用。角膜可能参与了不同免疫治疗药物引发的不同致病机制，角膜病从轻微症状到严重角膜溃疡、角膜融化并伴有视力丧失不等：摘要：癌症患者免疫治疗相关的角膜并发症与生活质量下降有关。为了保持眼表的完整性，避免出现威胁视力的并发症，眼科医生和肿瘤学家之间的及时识别和跨学科方法对于处理这些患者与免疫相关的眼部不良事件至关重要。
