While the adverse health impacts of microplastics are yet to be fully established, scientific literature indicates potential links to oxidative stress, inflammation, hormonal imbalance, and gastrointestinal dysfunction.

Despite initial treatment with intravenous acyclovir, he showed persistent vitreous inflammation with membranes, leading to intravitreal ganciclovir injections. While the patient experienced significant improvement, complications such as a macular hole and epiretinal membrane developed.
