A member asked:
I have tinea versicolor on forehead, and was on ketaconazole cream. while on cream i developed blue sclera in both eyes. how did this happen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blue sclera: this condition requires further thorough evaluation by your primary physician or ophthalmologist, since blue sclera may be associated with a number of conditions and some medications, including eye drops. Its unlikely to be due to ketoconazole cream by itself.
