TASS Wannabe

Thomas A. Oetting, MS, MD; Alex Cohen, MD

Here we show an interesting case where we were about to inject some balanced salt solution (BSS) and noticed that the BSS was blue. We discovered that 3 days before, the cannula was used to inject Trypan blue for capsule staining and had not been completely cleaned out. Dr. Alex Cohen did a nice job discussing this in detail in the following EyeRounds.org case: http://eyerounds.org/cases/85-Toxic-Anterior-Segment-Syndrome-TASS-Systems-Based.htm
