Ophthalmic Trauma

In the developed world, ocular trauma is one of the most under-recognized causes of vision loss. Cataract or glaucoma may develop as a result of blunt or penetrating ocular trauma (Figures 1 and 2). Etiologies of ocular injury vary across urban and rural locations; between different geographical regions of the world; and between various demographic or socioeconomic strata. They also vary from country to country. Remote trauma and the challenge of getting a reliable history might make epidemiological research challenging. Trials to enhance managerial understanding may also be constrained by inadequate follow-up. Understanding the cause or mechanism of injury is necessary for developing preventative strategies for ocular trauma since it may help to better allocate resources for preventing such injuries. There is a heavy, potentially avoidable burden placed on society and the victims of eye injuries.
