Silicone oil (SO) has been used as a long‐term tamponade agent in the treatment of
complicated vitreoretinal diseases for about half a century, during which time many …

Silicone oils (SO) are used as long-term intraocular tamponades and have an irreplaceable
role in vitreoretinal surgery. They can, however, be associated with multiple and potentially …

Introduction: Disorders of the eye that lead to visual impairment are affecting millions of
people worldwide. Nevertheless, for many of these disorders, there are still no effective …

Intraocular liquids tamponade agents, such as perfluorocarbon liquids (PFCLs),
semifluorinated alkanes (SFAs), silicone oils (SOs) and heavy silicone oils (HSOs), are a …

Purpose Proliferative vitreoretinopathy in the inferior retina remains clinically challenging.
Heavier-than-water intraocular tamponades have been developed to improve inferior …

Purpose: We studied the effects of exposure to biological media within the eye, such as
contamination with lipophilic and amphiphilic substances, on the physicochemical …

We numerically study the fluid dynamics of oil tamponade in models of vitrectomized eyes
prompted by a subset of daily activities corresponding to movements on the horizontal plane …

Objective To study silicone oil (SO) emulsification, anatomic and visual outcome after
complicated retinal detachment surgery by pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with intraocular SO …

Purpose.: There is a lack of a standardized methodology or a physiologically realistic in vitro
model to investigate silicone oil (SO) emulsification. In this study, we replicated the SO …

Purpose: First-(monomers), second-(pre-gelated), and third-(in situ gelating after injection)
generation hydrogels were previously introduced to replace the vitreous body after …
