Journey of Removing Retained Intraocular Foreign Body-No Vitrectomy to Silicon Oil
Journal Title: Ophthalmology and Vision Science - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
We present a series of 20 cases with Penetrating injury with retained intraocular foreign body seen at the vitreo-retina clinic in a tertiary care Medical College and Hospital in North India from a period of June 2011 to January 2012. Based on our experience, we present the preoperative assessment, indication and technique of IOFB removal and document the one year visual outcome of eyes with IOFB.
