Toxic effect of silicone oil on optic nerve
Silicone oil has been used as a safe and effective long-term vitreous substitute(VS)for more than 50 years. Clinically, it is currently widely used in surgical patients with severe ocular trauma and various complex vitreoretinal diseases, which has improved the prognosis of some previously incurable...
