Bull's-eye retinopathy has multiple associations. We report a case of bull's-eye retinopathy presumed to be secondary to clofazimine (Lamprene) treatment of a 30-year-old patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Pretreatment baseline eye exam of this patient was normal except for bilateral cotton-wool spots. However, follow-up exam 5 months later revealed bilateral anterior pigmentary corneal deposits in a whorl pattern, a presumed infectious retinitis in the left eye, and bilateral annular macular pigmentary abnormalities. The patient was taken off clofazimine treatment, but died 1 month later. The authors suggest that patients being treated with clofazimine be examined for drug-related corneal and retinal lesions.
