Description
Silicone Oil 1000 cSt is a sterile, medical-grade intraocular tamponade used in vitreoretinal surgeries to provide temporary internal support for the retina. It is especially effective in managing complex retinal detachments, including cases with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), giant retinal tears, and traumatic detachments.
With a viscosity of 1000 centistokes, this formulation offers a balance between tamponade duration and ease of injection and removal, making it a preferred choice for short- to medium-term intraocular use.
Indications:
- Retinal detachment with or without PVR
- Retinal tears and giant retinal tears
- Post-traumatic retinal detachment
- Recurrent retinal detachment after failed gas tamponade
- Tamponade following vitrectomy in complex cases
Key Features & Benefits:
- Medium viscosity (1000 cSt): Easier to inject and remove than higher-viscosity oils
- High optical clarity: Allows visualization of retina post-op
- Low surface tension: Ensures even retinal coverage
- Low emulsification risk for short-term use
- Biocompatible and inert – minimal interaction with ocular tissues
- Available in prefilled syringes or sterile vials for single-use
While performing retinal detachment repair, macular hole closure, or other vitreoretinal surgeries, Silicone Oil 1000 ensures reliable tamponade and intraocular lubrication. It is meticulously manufactured in state-of-the-art facilities under strict quality controls to ensure safety, efficacy, and compliance with international standards.
