2.8 Maximum radiation exposure

u
Adjust the surrounding field illumination to be somewhat
darker than the central red reflex spot. This simultaneously
reduces glare from the patient's sclera.
u
Use the lowest brightness setting possible.
u
Use the retina protection filter (blue barrier filter) to reduce the
blue portions of the light. The retina protection filter increases
the recommended duration of the radiation exposure.
u
When working on the exterior eye: use the retina protection
device. This will prevent light from entering the pupil.
u
Turn off the microscope illumination system or cover the
patient’s eye during pauses in surgery.
2.8 Maximum radiation exposure
The following tables are intended to serve as guidelines for deter-
mining potential hazards.
Bases for calculation
The calculations are based on the daily exposure [
29] limits
recommended for occupational safety
6)
. A safety factor of 10 has
been used in determining these limits.
The data has been calculated for the worst case scenario:
• Direct exposure
• Uninterrupted exposure (no surgical instruments in the eye)
• Aphakic eye
• Immobile eye (exposure in one area only)
• Pupil dilated to 8 mm

The use of the retina protection filter increases the recommended
exposure time by a factor of 5. Any deviation from these values is
only permissible when medically justified.
