Octafluoropropane is a drug used in eye surgery, often as an intraocular gas filler during retinal surgery. This medication helps maintain pressure inside the eye, promotes wound healing, and protects the eye from infection. Patients may experience a foreign body sensation in their eyes or mild discomfort after receiving this medication, but this is usually temporary.
Using octafluoropropane may cause some side effects, including blurred vision, eye pain, or redness. During use, the patient's eye condition should be closely monitored to ensure that no abnormal symptoms occur.
In Hong Kong, octafluoropropane is commonly used by medical professionals in hospitals or eye clinics. Before the patient receives treatment, the doctor will explain in detail the effects, side effects, and precautions of the drug. If you have any questions or discomfort, patients should consult their doctor promptly.
