Abstract
Ocular changes were studied in sixty patients treated with PUVASOL at six months interval. Trioxelen, psoralen and 8 MOP in 3 groups of twenty patients each were given for eighteen months. Photo adduct formation of cornea and lens were noticed after six months of therapy. Reversible visual acuity changes were seen at each visit. Fundus showed dull macular degeneration with psorelens and 8 MOP in patients above thirty years of age.
Keywords: PUVA, PUVASOL, Anterior segment, fundus, photo adducts.
