title: Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography of emulsified subretinal silicone oil presenting as a macular inverted pseudohypopyon.
abstract: The authors present a rare case of an inverted pseudohypopyon due to subretinal emulsified silicone oil in the macula of a patient who underwent pars plana vitrectomy surgery for repair of retinal detachment with proliferative vitreoretinopathy 1 year prior to presentation of this finding. The patient’s predisposing diagnosis is pathologic myopia.
