Introduction: Open globe injury is one of the commonest ophthalmic emergencies, and when accompanied by intraocular foreign bodies, the condition carries a poorer prognosis. Objective: To report a rare case of perforating injury of the globe with an iron nail which got lodged in the maxillary sinus. Case: A ten-year-old boy presented with the history of sudden painful loss of vision in his right eye. He reported that he was hit forcefully by the tail of a cow a day before the presentation. There was no perception of light in that eye. The ocular examination revealed a full thickness corneo-scleral perforation with prolapsed uveal tissue. The X-ray of the right orbit showed an impacted foreign body in the inferior orbit and computed tomography scan of the orbit confirmed the presence of a vertically impacted metal piece in the right orbit and right maxillary sinus. The repair of the perforation and removal of the impacted nail was done in two stages. The globe anatomy was maintained but the vision could not be restored due to the grave nature of the trauma. Conclusion: Perforating globe injury is an important cause of monocular blindness. Nepal J Ophthalmol 2013; 5(10): 268-271 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/nepjoph.v5i2.8742

Complicated Situation

Open globe injury (OGI) repair remains one of the most challenging surgeries in all of the eye surgery. Intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) constitute a subset with special treatment considerations. It is also clear that these operations can create a more complicated situation due to damage to the cornea or crystalline lens to ensure the safe removal of the posterior segment IOFBs. In these operations, indications, time, and surgical technique of removal of the IOFB should be planned in detail to maximize anatomical and functional success and prevent permanent vision loss of the patient. Several controversies exist in the management of IOFBs that will be reviewed in this article.

Blunt Ocular Trauma

Open globe injury (OGI) is a severe form of eye trauma. It is an important cause of monocular blindness worldwide. Ruptures from blunt trauma are most common at the sites where the sclera is thinnest, at the insertions of the extraocular muscles, and at the limbus. Most often, rupture is equatorial. We present a unique case of open globe injury due to blunt ocular trauma from a thrown rock that resulted in a meridional rupture of the eye. The pertinent literature is reviewed.

Unusual Case Report

Dentists often find foreign bodies in the primary dentition of children who habitually place objects in their mouths. The objects are frequently embedded in exposures that result from carious or traumatic lesions or from endodontic procedures that have been left open for drainage. Such bodies are often detected on routine radiographs and, less frequently, during clinical examination. We report a case of a 6-year-old boy who had inadvertently embedded a screw in his mandibular right first primary molar and had forgotten about it until it became symptomatic. The screw was impacted in the exposed pulp chamber due to a large carious lesion in the affected molar. This case report considers the possible medical and dental consequences of placing foreign bodies in the mouth.
