Laser photocoagulation of the retina is a highly effective technique for preventing visual loss in patients with a wide range of eye fundus diseases. The procedure involves creating thermal burns in the eye fundus accompanied by tissue coagulation, but unfortunately it can lead to possible side-effects and potential complications in the future. Some of the rare complications following retinal laser photocoagulation discussed in this article are accommodative weakness and pupil dilation with eventual transitory myopia and corneal sensitivity impairment. This literature review aims to provide an objective summary of global scientific literature on the issue of internal ophthalmoplegia developing after retinal laser photocoagulation, and describes in detail the current state of the problem including reported occurrences, inciting factors and underlying pathophysiology.
视网膜激光光凝术是预防多种眼底疾病患者视力丧失的一种高效技术。该手术会在眼底造成热灼伤并伴有组织凝固，但不幸的是，它可能会导致未来出现副作用和潜在并发症。本文讨论的视网膜激光光凝术后一些罕见并发症包括调节性弱视、瞳孔散大并最终导致暂时性近视以及角膜感觉减退。这篇文献综述旨在对视网膜激光光凝术后发生眼内肌麻痹问题的全球科学文献进行客观总结，并详细描述该问题的当前状态，包括报告的发生率、诱发因素和潜在病理生理学。
