Hello
It seems from the history that you have undergone surgery for retinal detachment.
Silicone oil is used in retinal detachment surgery to keep the retina attached following surgery.
Brizolamide and combigan are anti glaucoma drugs and are used to prevent secondary glaucoma induced by surgery.
Atropine sulphate is used to treat inflammation induced by surgery.
Thank you
