Short-Term Intraocular Perfluorocarbon Tamponade to Induce Posterior Vitreous Detachment in Traumatic Retinal Detachment: A Novel Staged Technique

Unlike previously described intraoperative PFCL-assisted methods to flatten the retina, this technique uses PFCL's density and surface tension to generate gentle shear forces over time, passively inducing PVD while maintaining macular attachment. This approach offers an alternative for complex traumatic RDs with dense vitreoretinal adhesion.
