Silicone oil tamponade in surgical treatment of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment
https://doi.org/10.21516/2072-0076-2022-15-4-173-177
Abstract
The article presents a literature review regarding the use of silicone oil tamponade (ST) in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) treatment. Vitrectomy, which produces a stable anatomical result in most patients, is currently recognized as one of the main methods of treating RRD. In complicated retinal detachments, vitrectomy is followed by ST tamponade of the vitreous cavity (VC). Despite the many benefits of ST, it carries the risk of a number of complications arising at different times after surgery. The duration of ST presence in the vitreous cavity during RRD treatment may vary substantially. The review presents ST complications, including an unexpected and hard to explain vision deterioration after silicone oil removal, and the correlation between the complications and the duration of ST presence in the vitreous cavity.
