Diseases of the eyes (ophthalmology)

Perforated corneal scleral wounds

With a corneal scleral wound, the limb zone may remain intact. Such perforating wounds have a separate entrance and exit holes in the wall of the eyeball and are called through (they are rarely scleroskiphal).

Scab wound wounds

The diagnosis of perforating injury of the sclera is sometimes not easy to put, if there is no x-ray contrast in the eye or visible through the pupil and the pedigree body, there is no gaping of the wound edges that are covered with edematous or blood-soaked conjunctiva, loss of internal membranes or vitreous body.

Corrosive perforation of the cornea

Uncomplicated perforating wound of the cornea is not accompanied by trauma of the deep tissues. If the brine is small and the edges are well adapted, the anterior chamber is preserved, and the iris with the wound does not contact.

Wounds of the eyeball

Non-penetrating superficial corneal damage - erosion (corneal epithelial defect, scratch) - accompanied by significant pain, lacrimation, photophobia, sensation of foreign body.

Orbital injuries

The causes causing damage to the orbit are diverse: impact by a heavy object, bruise on falling, the introduction of foreign bodies and others. The wounded items can be knives, forks, pencils, ski poles, branches, shot or bullets with a gunshot wound.

Injuries to eyelids and conjunctiva

The injuries of eyelids and conjunctiva look different depending on the nature of the damaging factor and the place of its application. In some cases, this may be a small hemorrhage under the skin, but in others - extensive breaks and ruptures of the eyelids.

Injury of the eye

Injury to the organ of vision is one of the most common causes of unilateral blindness in the world, especially in young people, 50% of injuries occur at the age of up to 30 years.

Foreign bodies in the eye

Small foreign bodies such as steel particles, coal or sand often settle on the surface of the cornea or conjunctiva.

Injury of the eyeball

The closed trauma of the eyeball is often defined as a blunt trauma. Corneoscleral shells of the eyeball remain intact, but there may be intraocular lesions.

Fractures of the orbit

An “explosive” fracture of the bottom of the orbit is usually caused by a sudden increase in intra-orbital pressure when struck by an object larger than 5 cm in diameter, for example, with a fist or a tennis ball.
