Severe Intraocular Gunshot Injury With Metal Foreign Body

Show Description +

This was a very interesting case when we found two intraocular foreign bodies inside the eye and a traumatic cataract, with a self-sealing corneal wound. The foreign bodies were seen in two different positions inside the eye, one in the mid-vitreous and the other had to be pulled from the deep choroid at the very retinal periphery.
