ABSTRACT
Eyeball injuries – types, diagnosis and treatment
Eyeball injuries are a common cause of temporary or permanent impairment of vision. They constitute a significant health problem affecting the physical, mental and social function of the entire human body. Eyeball injuries impair the patient’s ability to work and fully function in society. Every case of a suspected or confirmed ocular injury requires a mandatory ophthalmological consultation. A reliable history that provides clues leading to a correct diagnosis combined with a detailed slit-lamp examination to assess the anterior and posterior chamber and the ocular adnexa are indispensable procedures in the management of patients with ocular injuries. Importantly, in chemical burns, key treatment procedures involve immediate and copious rinsing of the eyeball performed at the site of the accident, following which the patient should be transported to a specialised facility without a dressing placed on the affected eye. In many cases of eyeball injuries, appropriately rapid management is a key factor in improving prognosis. This article discusses the diagnostic work-up and management of the most common types of eyeball injuries that patients present with at hospital emergency departments.
