Abstract
The retinal toxicity of vancomycin in infusion solution used in vitrectomy and lensectomy was investigated in rabbit eyes by means of electroretinography and histologic study (light microscopy). Concentrations of 8 micrograms/ml, 16 micrograms/ml, and 32 micrograms/ml of vancomycin in balanced salt solution caused no abnormal ERG or histologic changes. However, ERG amplitude depression and abnormal histologic changes occurred when the concentration of 100 micrograms/ml of vancomycin was used.Entities:
