title: [Subfoveal perfluorocarbon liquid. Two new cases].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Subfoveal perfluorocarbon liquid (SPCL) causes vision loss and central scotoma. We present two clinical cases with this complication and we review the 5 clinical cases reported in the literature to analyse their potential prognostic factors.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  SPCL extraction involves an early visual acuity recovery and a central scotoma disappearance. The visual acuity recovery degree does not depend on the patient's age, the onset visual acuity or the evolution time when this last one is less than 3 months.
