A NOVEL FINDING OF HYPERREFLECTIVE MATERIAL IN THE SILICONE-RETINA INTERFACE: An Optical Coherence Tomographic and Histopathological Study

Conclusion:
This is the first report on hyperreflective material detected by spectral domain optical coherence tomography in the silicone-retina interphase in eyes with silicone oil tamponade. These findings may represent an inflammatory response to silicone oil exposure that may be the initial manifestation of a future proliferative process, warranting a rigorous follow-up protocol for affected patients.
