Intraocular Pressure Rise Linked to Silicone Oil in Retinal Surgery: A Review
Silicone oil represents the main choice for intraocular tamponade in cases of complicated retinal detachment surgery. The intraocular pressure of an eye filled with silicone oil could increase, driven by a variety of different forces, according to ...

Two-liquid-phase mesophilic and thermophilic biotrickling filters for the biodegradation of α-pinene [PDF]
α-Pinene biodegradation was evaluated in mesophilic and thermophilic biotrickling filters. The potential of silicone oil for enhancing the removal was evaluated too, at both temperatures.

Citrobacter koseri: A Cause of Silicone Oil Related Endophthalmitis after Post Pars Plana Vitrectomy
Purpose. We present a rare case of Citrobacter koseri culture-positive endophthalmitis in a postvitrectomy silicone oil-filled eye. Case report. A 64-year-old male patient presented to our ophthalmology emergency room with representative symptoms of ...

Role of uncrosslinked chains in droplets dynamics on silicone elastomers [PDF]
We report an unexpected behavior in wetting dynamics on soft silicone substrates: the dynamics of aqueous droplets deposited on vertical plates of such elastomers exhibits two successive speed regimes.

Interfacial treatment effects on behavior of soft nano-composites for highly stretchable dielectrics [PDF]
We investigate the influence of interfacial treatment on the matrix–filler interaction using a melt mixing process to fabricate robust and highly stretchable dielectrics. Silicone oil and silane coupling agent are studied as possible solutions to enhance

Mass transfer coefficients of styrene into water/silicone oil mixtures: New interpretation using the "equivalent absorption capacity" concept. [PDF]
International audienceThe physical absorption of styrene into water/silicone oil systems at a constant flow rate for mixtures of different compositions (silicone oil volume fraction ϕ = 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 8%, and 10%) was investigated in ...

Intraocular pressure changes during and after silicone oil endotamponade (Review)
Silicone oil (SIO) has rapidly become an indispensable adjunct in vitreoretinal surgery. Constant improvements in purity and also in viscosity have not totally prevented specific complications that may occur during endotamponade.

F4H5: A novel substance for the removal of silicone oil from intraocular lenses [PDF]
Aim: Adherent silicone oil on intraocular lenses (IOLs) following retinal detachment surgery induces large and irregular refractive errors and multiple images, and gives rise to glare, distorted and often poor vision.

A novel design silicone oil removal cannula
Background: Silicone oil, which is one of the most commonly used endotamponades in vitreoretinal surgery, is removed after a certain period of time in most cases.
