Ocular phototoxicity.
The human eye is constantly exposed to sunlight and artificial lighting. Therefore the eye is exposed to UV-B (295-320 nm), UV-A (320-400 nm), and visible light (400-700 nm). Light is transmitted through the eye and then signals the brain directing both sight and circadian rhythm. Therefore light absorbed by the eye must be benign. Damage to the young and adult eye by intense ambient light is a...
متن کاملScreening for ocular phototoxicity.
Normally light transmission through the eye is benign and serves to direct vision and circadian rhythm. However, with very intense light exposure, or with ambient light exposure to the aged eye and/or young or adult eye in the presence of light-activated (photosensitizing) drugs or dietary supplements, cosmetics, or diagnostic dyes, light can be hazardous, leading to blinding disorders. Light d...
متن کاملProtein Corona Prevents TiO2 Phototoxicity
BACKGROUND & AIM TiO2 nanoparticles have generally low toxicity in the in vitro systems although some toxicity is expected to originate in the TiO2-associated photo-generated radical production, which can however be modulated by the radical trapping ability of the serum proteins. To explore the role of serum proteins in the phototoxicity of the TiO2 nanoparticles we measure viability of the exp...
متن کاملMethylene blue-induced phototoxicity: an unrecognized complication.
OBJECTIVE To describe photosensitization after prenatal exposure to a toxic amount of methylene blue and to alert pediatricians that, in a review of the literature, photosensitization (which this dye is capable of) has not been reported as a complication of prenatal exposure. DESIGN AND PATIENTS A descriptive report of physical findings and significant laboratory tests in a very low birth wei...
متن کاملLong-term follow-up of iatrogenic phototoxicity.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the outcomes of a group of patients who suffered iatrogenic phototoxic injury. METHODS The medical records of 24 patients (24 eyes) with iatrogenic phototoxicity from 3 medical centers were reviewed. We report the findings from long-term follow-up of these patients with particular attention to visual outcome, type and duration of procedure, and location of the phototoxic...
