Abstract：
:We examined the ability of hypothermic infusion fluid to reduce the risk of light damage to the retina from the intraocular fiberoptic probe during vitreous surgery. Following vitrectomy, we exposed the retina of rabbits to light from an intraocular fiberoptic probe during infusion of fluid at body temperature (39 C) and compared this with exposures during infusion of room temperature fluid (22 C). Retinal irradiance was 0.33 W/cm2. Damage was determined ophthalmoscopically and histologically. Cooling the infusion fluid from body to room temperature extended the damage threshold from approximately 25 to 60 minutes. A 35-minute exposure to body temperature fluid was compared with the same exposure during infusion of room temperature fluid. While retinal and retinal pigment epithelium damage was present after the body temperature exposure, no damage was detected after the room temperature exposure. Vitreoretinal surgeons should avoid warming intraocular infusion fluids to levels above room temperature.
