A member asked:
Is voriconazole used as an eye drop solution ? even as an out labeled or freshly prepared in health care institutions ?

Yes: Voriconazole 1% as a topical eye drop has shown efficacy in treating fungal keratitis. It can be used as an alternative to Natamycin 5% drops or Amphotericin B 0.15% drops for treating fungal keratitis. It can be used as a topical fortified solution made my diluting IV voriconazole with sterile water and filtering the solution before administration. The hope is to avoid the systemic side effects.
