We compared the maximum light output of selected 19- and 20-gauge continuous-fiber and detachable-tip endoilluminators to the retinal damage threshold for intravitreal fiber-optic light in the owl monkey. Because of cumulative light toxicity to the retina there is a substantial risk of retinal damage from endoillumination when the endoilluminator is close to the retina (for example, during membrane peeling procedures) and especially when the continuous-fiber endoilluminator with high light output is used.
我们将选定的19号和20号连续光纤及可拆卸尖端眼内照明器的最大光输出与鸮猴玻璃体内光纤照明的视网膜损伤阈值进行了比较。由于视网膜存在累积光毒性,当照明器靠近视网膜时(例如在膜剥离手术期间),尤其是使用高光输出的连续光纤照明器时,眼内照明存在导致视网膜损伤的重大风险。
