Silicone oil with high specific gravity for intraocular use.
Silicone oil with a higher specific gravity than that of intraocular fluid or polydimethylsiloxane may have special indications in vitreoretinal surgery. Trifluorsiloxane is such a substance, and therefore its biological compatibility was investigated in rabbit eyes. It was found that this substance was clinically well tolerated within the observation time of up to 6 months, even if there was s...
متن کاملMigration of intraocular silicone oil into brain.
Gnanalingham J, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-220555 Description An 84 -year-old woman was admitted following a slight mechanical fall while she was in her garden. She had banged the back of her head followed by a brief period of nausea and vomiting which was self-limiting. One year before, the patient underwent surgical repair for retinal detachment of left eye with involvemen...
متن کاملSilicone oil-intraocular lens interaction: which lens to use?
AIM To determine a suitable intraocular lens for implantation in patients at high risk of lens exposure to silicone oil in their lifetime. METHODS PMMA, AcrySof, AR40, AQUA-Sense, and Raysoft lenses were examined. Each lens was immersed for 5 minute intervals in balanced salt solution (BSS), in stained silicone oil, and again in BSS before being photographed in air and in BSS. Percentage sili...
متن کاملIntraocular Silicone Oil Masquerading as Terson Syndrome
Introduction. Terson syndrome is described as intraocular hemorrhage in association with any type of intracranial hemorrhage and is associated with higher mortality rate and vision loss. Intraocular hemorrhage in Terson syndrome may be diagnosed using computed tomography but there are false positive results. Silicone oil which is widely used for internal tamponade of complicated retinal detachm...
متن کاملHeavy Silicone Oil and Intraocular Inflammation
In the past two decades, many advances have been made in vitrectomy instrumentation, surgical techniques, and the use of different tamponade agents. These agents serve close retinal breaks, confine eventual retinal redetachment, and prevent proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Long-acting gases and silicone oil are effective internal tamponade agents; however, because their specific gravity i...
