Hcq is safest drug in rheumatology. Eye toxicity usually happens only after 7-10 years of continued use of above doses. We advice eye check-up once a year only and despite having prescribed it for more than 7 years to thousands of patient, I or even more experienced consultants hardly see any patient with hcq problems. So I would advice to continue. Best wishes. You can look for more information on arthritisrheumindia website.
