Retinal architecture as a determinant of brilliant blue G phototoxicity during internal limiting membrane peeling: A case series
BBG-related retinal phototoxicity may occur following ILM peeling, with eyes undergoing MH surgery appearing more vulnerable, possibly due to the absence of protective foveal neurosensory tissue. Awareness of this potential risk may encourage surgeons to consider minimizing illumination intensity and dye exposure, and to adopt protective intraoperative strategies aimed at preserving foveal integrity and optimizing visual outcomes.
