Hello,
Welcome to health care magic
Retinal detachment surgery by silicone oil replacement is required for few complicated cases. The other option is using intraocular gases like perflurocarbons as an alternative to silicone oil.
You have to discuss with your vitreoretinal surgeon regarding this matter.
Thank you
