Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
09/01/1997 - "

Retinal Detachment (Retinal Detachments)
12/01/1994 - "
Silicone-fluorosilicone copolymer oil may be useful intraoperatively and as a temporary vitreous substitute in cases of inferior retinal detachment.
"
10/01/1995 - "
Silicone-fluorosilicone copolymer oil may be useful as an intraoperative device in retinal detachment surgery and as a short term (up to about 2 months) retinal tamponade but we do not recommend it for long term retinal tamponade.
"
12/01/1994 - "
We evaluate the ocular response clinically and histopathologically within 8 weeks in rabbit phakic eyes to the purified silicone-fluorosilicone copolymer oil after vitreous cavity injection, and compared the oil tolerance with purified silicone oil (0.97 g cm-3, 5000 centistokes) and perfluorotetradecahydrophenanthrene for ophthalmic use (Vitreon, 2.03 g cm-3, 8.03 centistokes) which are currently used as operative tools and as internal retinal tamponade agents in retinal detachment surgery.
