Abstract

74 cases of ocular trauma comprised traumatic cataract in 9 eyes, traumatic vitreous opacity in 23 eyes, traumatic retinal detachment in 29 eyes, intraocular foreign bodies in 11 eyes, and traumatic endophthalmitis in 2 eyes. Operations of closed vitrectomy, scleral buckling, lensectomy with vitrectomy and gas-fluid exchange effected vitreous clarity in 69 eyes (93.2%) and visual improvement in 52 eyes (70.3%). Surgical complications occurred in 8 eyes (10.8%).
