The complete removal of perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL) after complex vitreoretinal surgery can be a challenging task. However, it remains a crucial step to avoid several ocular complications associated with retained PFCL. In this report, the authors describe a simple and effective technique to highlight the presence of retained PFCL bubbles in the epiretinal space through negative staining with vital dyes.

Abstract
The complete removal of perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL) after complex vitreoretinal surgery can be a challenging task. However, it remains a crucial step to avoid several ocular complications associated with retained PFCL. In this report, the authors describe a simple and effective technique to highlight the presence of retained PFCL bubbles in the epiretinal space through negative staining with vital dyes.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
