چکیده

This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the influence of a temporary silicone oil (SiO) tamponade on intraocular pressure (IOP). We reviewed 131 procedures with a temporary SiO tamponade for different indications. Visual outcome and anatomic results after the SiO removal were also analyzed. Relatively good visual and anatomic results can be achieved by a temporary SiO tamponade with an acceptable complication rate.

BACKGROUND Combined with vitreoretinal surgery, silicone oil injection has become a standard technique and improves the prognosis of complex retinal detachment. As silicone oil leads to long term complications, removal of silicone oil from the eye is recommended. To evaluate the outcome after silicone oil removal, retinal redetachment, visual acuity, and complications were analysed. METHODS T...

Transscleral drainage of subretinal/suprachoroidal silicone oil.

Silicone oil migration into the subretinal space following vitreoretinal surgery may occur in complex cases of retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy. This complication prevents achievement of the primary goal (ie, to attach the retina) and fails to provide the internal tamponade, leading to a permanent decrease in visual acuity. Successful and complete removal of the subretina...
