Abstract

We would like to report the first case of bilateral severe anterior uveitis secondary to erlotinib. Erlotinib is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor which can contain certain cancer cells [1]. It is licensed for use in patients with non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) in the UK as a secondary treatment for those patients who fail to respond to standard chemotherapy.
