LSO Silicone OilTM

Labtician LSO Silicone Oil™ has been fractionated to remove the low-molecular-weight components meaning ultrapure, ophthalmic grade silicone oil.

The short-chain molecules that are known to cause inflammation and which are present in medical grade silicone are removed via a special purification process for use in ophthalmic applications. Labtician LSO Silicone Oil™ has been fractionated to remove the low-molecular-weight components, meaning there is no potential for inflammation; this also lessens the potential for emulsification, thereby reducing the need for premature silicone oil removal from the eye.

Silicone oil is a tamponade agent that holds the retina in place by providing internal pressure to prevent the neurosensory retina from peeling off again. The vitreous gel is removed and replaced with silicone oil, which presses the retina against the choroid and promotes reattachment. After the retina has reattached itself against the back of the eye, a second procedure can be performed to remove the oil.
