PURPOSE: Open imaging fluorescence devices have been utilized in surgical oncology, vascular and plastic surgery; however, the role of indocyanine green (ICG) in periorbital surgery and lymphatics has not been explored. METHODS: A prospective, single-center diagnostic study was conducted from 2021 to 2022 utilizing ICG to assess both the periorbital vasculature and lymphatics. Fluorescence was captured with open-imaging fluorescent devices. For ICG angiography, a total of 5-10 mg of ICG was given intravenously at various time points to visualize intraoperative blood flow to eyelid flaps, vascular tumors, or extraocular muscles...
