What is Operating Microscope Light Retinopathy about?
A study of 135 cataract surgeries found that 7.4% of patients developed operating microscope light retinopathy, primarily due to prolonged operating times, with an average increase of 51 minutes in affected patients. Significant risk factors included diabetes mellitus, younger age, and the use of hydrochlorothiazide. The findings highlight the potential retinal toxicity from the intense light used during cataract surgery with operating microscopes.
