Dilute silver nitrate must be used because concentrated can cause blindness in extreme cases.

Dilute silver nitrate is used when applied to the eyes because concentrated silver nitrate can be highly caustic and can cause severe damage to the delicate tissues of the eye. Diluting it reduces its potency and lowers the risk of harm. Additionally, dilute solutions are better tolerated by the eye, making them safer to use for certain medical procedures or treatments.
