← ScienceWhich risk specifically increases when a pulsed laser induces microbubble formation within the aqueous humor of the eye?
A)Transient intraocular pressure elevation✓
B)Complete and permanent retinal detachment
C)Significant thermal corneal ablation
D)Accelerated protein cataract degradation
💡 Explanation
Microbubble formation causes transient pressure elevation because shock waves initiate the mechanism of cavitation. Therefore, pressure risks increase, rather than retinal detachment, corneal ablation, or cataract formation, which may arise under differing thermal conditions.
