SANDWICH TAMPONADE TECHNIQUE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF GIANT RETINAL TEAR RETINAL DETACHMENT
The 'sandwich' tamponade is a safe and effective short-term post-operative tamponade for GRT-RRD extending beyond the superior and inferior meridians. It has the advantage of providing tamponade to a large extensive GRT with no posturing requirement, and of avoiding ocular toxicity associated with the use of silicone oil.
