Abstract
-
We evaluated the histologic change of retina after gas compression of the vitreous followed by intravitreal injection of silicone oil in albino rabbits. The retinal architecture was well preserved and no abnormal findings could be demonstrated by light microscopic and electron microscopic examinaions 8 weeks after surgery.
