Silicone oil

Geuder has introduced Siluron Xtra Geuder, a new-generation silicone oil, on the market. “Due to its special molecular structure Siluron Xtra has in vitro, in comparison to the standard silicone oils, a high resistance to emulsification,” said a company spokeswoman. “The oil consists of a mixture of extremely long molecular chains and of short molecular chains. Because of the innovative molecular design the oil can change its viscous characteristics according to the high shearing forces which are to be found in the eye,” said the spokeswoman. “A further advantage of the product is its excellent long-term tolerance,” she said.
