Factors Influencing the Shear Rate Acting on Silicone Oil to Cause Silicone Oil Emulsification
Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2014 The shear force between silicone oil (SO) bubble and aqueous during eye movements may underlie the development of SO emulsification. This study examines factors that may affect such shear force induced by eye movements.A surface-modified model eye chamber was put under large-amplitude eye movements (amplitude 90°, angular velocity 360°/s, and a ...
