What is TissueBlue?

TissueBlue is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Dutch Ophthalmic Research Centre (DORC). TissueBlue (generic name, Brilliant Blue G Ophthalmic Solution) 0.025% is a disclosing agent used to stain the internal limiting membrane (ILM), which forms the inner layer of the retina.

Cellular growth and spread on the ILM can form vision-impairing epiretinal membranes (ERM) and macular holes. Removal of the ILM can relieve symptoms of macular distortion. TissueBlue is injected onto the inner retinal surface, allowing the ILM to be stained and therefore distinguished from the unstained retina, allowing its removal.

What doses of TissueBlue are available?

TissueBlue 0.025% is supplied in 2.25 mL pre-filled syringes to which a blunt cannula can be attached for administration during ophthalmic surgery.

Ensure the plunger moves smoothly before injecting the solution. Inject TissueBlue 0.025% directly in a balanced salt solution-filled vitreous cavity. Excess TissueBlue should be removed from the vitreous cavity.

Always speak with a healthcare professional about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
