Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Penetrating wounds with intraocular foreign body are ophthalmologic emergencies due to their severity and complexity and may require multiple surgeries for final resolution. CASE REPORT: 30-years-old patient with penetrating wound and metallic intraocular foreign body in the posterior vitreous requires successive operations for IOFB extraction, lensectomy, posterior vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and then silicone oil extraction with final visual acuity 0, 4 PH.
