Multiple yellowish preretinal deposits in a silicon oil filled eye 6 months following retinal reattachment surgery in an 18-year-old girl. Nature of deposits unknown, likely inflammatory. She developed retinal redetachment (non-rhegmatogenous) after oil removal; after oil reinjection there has been no recurrence of deposits over the last 2 years.
