INTRODUCTION Brimonidine is a commonly used drug for glaucoma treatment, which has been linked to ocular autoimmune disorders like uveitis and conjunctivitis. Corneal pathology under brimonidine is generally less common. CASE DESCRIPTION Here, we report a 78 -year-old male patient suffering from immune corneal stromal inflammation with hypotony and resulting hypotonic maculopathy after 6 weeks after introduction of brimonidine treatment. Systemic work-up for system autoimmune and infectious diseases was negative. We discontinued brimonidine and administered topical prednisolone under which inflammatory corneal signs and intraocular pressure normalized. Chorioretinal folds persisted after 9 months. CONCLUSION Our case report suggests monitoring patients under brimonidine for sterile corneal infiltration.
