Vitreoretinal Gases, Oils, Liquids

During vitreoretinal surgery, various types of inert gases, liquids and silicone oils may be used as a tamponade agent to plug the vitreous space in the eye or for use in retinal detachment therapy. Depending on your surgical needs, your choice of a gas, oil or liquid may be dependent upon the product's specific properties, such as surface tension, viscosity and refractive index.
