Silicone oil is an inert substance commonly used in syringe manufacturing.
Silicone oil is a common product used to coat syringes to ensure they glide easily. Occasionally, during an intravitreal injection, the silicone can become dislodged and injected into the vitreous cavity. This case demonstrates a significant amount of silicone oil as result of one intravitreal injection. The arrows highlight a few oil bubbles but many more can be seen.
Enlarged view from previous image demonstrating many silicone oil droplets (arrows denote some of the bubbles but many others can be noted).
