MIEBO 1 mg/mg (Perfluorohexyloctane SOLUTION) 1 mg/mg

MIEBO is used in the treatment of conditions related to the retina and vitreous humor. It is particularly effective in the following conditions:

• Retinal detachment repair: Helps to flatten and re-attach the retina during surgery.
• Vitreoretinal surgery: Provides a temporary intra-ocular tamponade to support surgical procedures.
• Macular hole surgery: Assists in the closure and stabilization of macular holes.

• Perfluorohexyloctane works by providing a temporary intra-ocular tamponade due to its high specific gravity. This helps to flatten and re-attach the retina during vitreoretinal surgery, supporting the healing process and maintaining the structural integrity of the eye.

MIEBO may cause certain side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include:
