Summary

Retinal detachment is one of the leading causes for permanent vision loss.Incidence of Rheugmatogenous Retinal Detachment (RRD) about 10.5 people per 100,000 population pars plana vitrectomy is the most popular and effective surgical options.

Tamponade agents as silicone oils are used to restore intraocular volume and apply surface tension to the detached retinal surface Silicone oil (SO) is a liquid containing polymerized siloxane with organic side chains. It has a high thermal stability, is hydrophobic, and chemically inert. The use of silicone oils as intraocular tamponades dates from 1962.

Conditions

  • Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment

Interventions

DEVICE

Multi focal electroretinogram

to evaluat the effect of silicon oil on retinal function in the eyes that underwent Pars Plana Vitrectomy with Silicon oil tamponade for Rheugmatogenous Retinal Detachment. mfERG responses were recorded before and after Silicon oil removal .
