Abstract
Temporary use of intraocular silicone oil has first been described for the treatment of retinal detachments with massive periretinal proliferation. The technique has been proved to be safe and helpful and is now used for the management of other desperate retinal detachments, such as those with traumatic fibrous ingrowth, giant tear, posterior hole, and choroidal coloboma.Keywords
