Factors Affecting Prognosis of Open Globe Injuries

: Detailed history should be taken from the patients ( age ,sex ,location of accident (rural or civil) , time of injury , mode of trauma, exact mechanism of injury ) Examination at baseline to determine location and extent of injury. Associated injuries e.g. cataract ,hyphema . Assessment for other life threatening injuries. Exclusion of IOFB. The presenting visual acuity should be recorded in injuried and uninjuried eye. Fundus examination if possible. The pupils should be examined for RAPD (in blunt trauma searching post traumatic optic neuropathy) Slit lamp examination at presentation to detect extent of damage. {type of wound ( corneal ,scleral ,or corneoscleral ) , prolapsed uveal tissue presence of hyphema ,sublaxated or dislocated lens ,prolapsed vitreous } Investigations done before repair (e.g. CT orbit ) Time of primary repair should be recorded. Follow up visits at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months for :-For healing.Suture status.Detailed slit lamp and fundus examination.UCVABCVAInvestigations including:- B scan if hazy media OCT if clear mediaRefraction if possible Post operative complications and 2ry interventionsAim of study :predict the final visual outcome of open globe injuries. Assess most common modes of trauma in open globe injuries. Assess postoperative complications and secondary intervention
