DO DAILY ACTIVITIES AFFECT GAS TAMPONADE‒RETINA CONTACT AFTER PARS PLANA VITRECTOMY?: A Computational Fluid Dynamics Study
Purpose:
To calculate the retinal surface alternatively in contact with gas and aqueous because of fluid sloshing during daily activities such as ocular saccade, turning the head, standing up, and being a passenger of a braking car.
Methods:
Fluid dynamics of aqueous and gas tamponade was reproduced using computational methods using the OpenFOAM open-source library. The double-fluid dynamics was simulated by the volume of fluid method and setting the contact angle at the aqueous–gas–retina interface.
Results:
Sloshing increased the retinal surface in contact with aqueous by 13% to 16% regardless of fill rate and standing up determined the largest area of wet retina, followed by car braking, head rotation, and ocular saccade (P
