Comparing two eye measurement methods in silicone oil eyes
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to measure eye length in people having surgery for retinal detachment with silicone oil. The goal is to find out which measurement method works better for eyes filled with silicone oil.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have retinal detachment.
- You are scheduled for vitrectomy surgery with silicone oil filling.
- You have not had eye surgery before.
- This is your first time having retinal detachment (not a recurrence).
- You are not also having a scleral buckle surgery.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial uses a special spring-loaded syringe to remove silicone oil from the eye after a previous vitrectomy surgery. It may offer a simpler way to take out the oil for people who don't have certain eye problems.
This trial looks at whether a detailed eye scan taken before removing silicone oil from the eye can help predict how well your vision will recover after the removal. The goal is to help doctors better plan and set expectations for recovery.
This study looks at how well surgery works for people with a specific type of detached retina (rhegmatogenous retinal detachment). It may help improve how doctors choose and manage treatment, based on what outcomes happen after repair.
This study examines how silicon oil (a clear liquid sometimes used to repair detached retinas) affects the electrical function of the retina. Researchers will use special eye tests to measure how well the retina responds to light after treatment.
This trial tests whether using a liquid called perfluorocarbon (PFCL) during surgery helps the retina heal better in people with a specific type of retinal detachment. The goal is to see if it reduces damage to blood vessels in the eye.
This study compares two types of surgery for retinal detachment that is more complex—when there are large or multiple holes. One surgery uses a flexible band around the eye, the other removes the gel inside the eye. The goal is to see which works better for medium-complex cases.
