Ophthalmic Gases

Ophthalmic surgical gases are used during vitrectomy and are injected into the vitreous chamber for the purpose of replacing the vitreous and promoting retinal adhesion. During the average residence time in the eye (about 1-9 weeks depending on the type) the gas is gradually replaced by aqueous humor and exhaled.
