Outcomes of complex retinal detachment surgery after 1000 and 5000 centistoke silicone oil removals

Outcomes of complex retinal detachment surgery after 1000 and 5000 centistoke silicone oil removals In 82 eyes with complex retinal detachment requiring internal tamponade, 53 were filled with 5000-cs and 29 with 1000-cs silicone oil. Use of high-viscosity silicone oil (5000 cs) may be associated with a poorer anatomic and functional outcome compared with lower viscosity silicone oil (1000 cs). http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Annals of Ophthalmology Springer Journals

Abstract

In 82 eyes with complex retinal detachment requiring internal tamponade, 53 were filled with 5000-cs and 29 with 1000-cs silicone oil. Use of high-viscosity silicone oil (5000 cs) may be associated with a poorer anatomic and functional outcome compared with lower viscosity silicone oil (1000 cs).
