This report of a mass in the upper eyelid resulting from long-term complications of heavy liquid tamponade therapy of retinal detachment is a good example of learning from rare cases.

Retinal detachments may be repaired by scleral buckling, vitrectomy surgery or by a combination of both techniques. Retinal detachments repaired by vitrectomy are typically tamponaded by either gas or silicone oil. In certain complex cases, heavy liquid (perfluorohexyloctane/polydimethylsiloxane) is used as a short-term tamponading agent that is subsequently replaced with gas or silicone oil.1 2

A 16-year-old woman presented with bilateral retinal detachments secondary to giant tears. The patient had no relevant ocular history and denied trauma. The left eye had a macula-sparing detachment and the right eye had a macula-off retinal detachment. Both retinas were reattached sequentially with a combination of scleral buckling and vitrectomy with heavy liquid tamponade. The heavy...
