Anecdotally, our incident of reaction is too low to statistically track.  We 
almost never see nausea either.

Personally, I’m convinced it speaks to volume of solution, and/or good patient 
management.

Subject: [optimal] fluorescein reactions?


just an unscientific survey please



which has less reactions?  10% or 25% fluorescein?



I'm guessing that I have about one patient everyother year will have more than 
just nausea.  And its been about four years since I've called an ambulance for 
a reaction.



And only a few per year that will be more than just nauseated, but full out 
vomiting.  (those aren't fun)



Just curious.
