Gas Concentration Errors in Vitreoretinal Surgery: Insights from a Model of Gas Mass Transfer Dynamics
Gas concentration mix errors produce rapid and often unsalvageable IOP rises. While limited SF₆ over-concentrations may be temporarily stabilised with medical therapy and controlled venting, most scenarios, especially involving C₂F₆ or C₃F₈, require urgent surgical complete gas exchange.
