After retinal detachment and silicone oil removal, caution is key. Eye health is enhanced by lycopene, but consuming it in high amounts like 8000 mg might not be safe without expert advice. Your body could react negatively to excessive lycopene. The right amount for your specific situation can best be determined by consulting with an eye specialist.
