I try to simplify the explanation as "blood has components like red cells,
white cells and clear fluid to carry them around", a concept most know as
basic. "The dye we use stains the clear part and is photographed with
filtered light" and I add as an aside "sometimes plumbers use the dye
looking for leaks or people can follow water sources in caves" And, as we on
OPTIMAL know, "it's used to make the river green for St Patrick's day."

Over the years i have also found that simply telling patients that
fluorescein sodium is a dye that ophthalmologists have been using since the
early 1880s and injecting since the 1950s is enough to keep them fairly
calm.
