- Abstract:
We studied the usefulness of topical cysteamine ophthalmic drops in reducing crystal formation within the corneas of patients affected by nephropathic cystinosis. A dosage of 0.3% cysteamine given four times daily was chosen as a more manageable method than a previously reported protocol of hourly administration of 0.11% drops. No reduction in crystal formation was observed in our patients; they were followed for seven months.
