Abstract

Vitrectomy followed by endotamponade of the vitreal cavity with silicone oil (SO) is one of the main techniques of treating severe forms of regmatogenic retinal detachment (RRD). Endotamponade with SO, having numerous advantages and a huge potential, carries the risk of a number of complications arising at various times of application. The literature review analyzes the published data on the effect of tamponade SO on the retina and the function of central vision in RRD surgery: visual acuity, indicators of light and color sensitivity, data of electrophysiological test results. Possible causes of deteriorated central vision functions directly or indirectly related to tamponade with SO are discussed: changes in the thickness and structure of the retina or its individual layers as shown by optical coherence tomography (OCT) data, microcirculation disorders according to OCT angiography, fluorescein angiography, Doppler laser scanning, as well as pathohistological findings related to SO migration into the fundus of eye tissues.
