Beware of the Bleb
by Aprile Doubt, OD, MS, William J. Denton, OD, FAAO, FSLS, FORS and Kelly Singleton, OD, MS | Aug 21, 2024

Misdiagnosed or undertreated bleb-related infections can lead to endophthalmitis and permanent vision loss. Clinicians should understand the serious nature of BRIs and be knowledgeable about risk factors, treatment, and diagnosis to prevent vision loss in these patients.
