Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the corneal toxicity of intravitreal methotrexate used for the prevention of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR).

Methods: In this retrospective case series, eyes with recurrent retinal detachment secondary to PVR were treated with intravitreal injections of 400 μg methotrexate at an average frequency of every 7 days after vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade. Corneas were examined for corneal epitheliopathy by slit-lamp biomicroscopy before each injection.
