This is the case report of a 67-year-old lady who was diagnosed to have Multiple Myeloma and was given injection Zoledronic acid and developed Anterior Uveitis in both eyes. Uveitis was cured completely with topical steroids and she did not have any recurrence, even though injection Zoledronic acid was continued for one year. This shows that even if the patient develops ocular inflammation with the first dose, the treatment can be continued with monitoring after discussing the risks and benefits with the patient, since the patient can develop tolerance with each infusion.
 

Keywords: Zoledronic acid, Multiple myeloma, Uveitis.
