MembraneBlue (trypan blue 0.15%) is an ophthalmic solution that selectively stains internal ocular membranes during posterior eye surgery. It is used intraoperatively to visualize epiretinal membranes (ERM) and internal limiting membranes (ILM) to improve surgical precision. The dye enhances membrane visualization without affecting tissue function.
