Are contrast dye for eye tests okay in ckd stage 4, gfr 24 ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Qualified OK: Fluorescein is the agent most commonly used for a Eye dye test - only contraindication is a known hypersensitivity and intrathecal or intra arterial use - as per the manufactures insert - no dose adjustment is necessary for impaired renal function - A careful review of all medications you take is also necessary particularly beta blockers
