Liquid silicone injection in treatment of proliferative vitro retinopathy

Liquid silicone was used in the surgical treatment of 46 eyes with complex retinal detachment. Forty six eyes have been followed up for at least 6 months. In 27 of these eyes [57.7 percent] the retina was totally or partially attached at the 6 month follow-up. Visual improvement was found in 20 of the 46 eyes [43.5 percent]. These results are encouraging considering the poor prognosis of the operated eyes. There were few severe complications during an observation time of 6 months. Liquid silicone was found to be a valuable help in the surgical treatment of severe forms of retinal detachment
