Abstract
Abstract: Introduction and aim: To analyse and classify the ocular trauma cases at the in-patient ophthalmological department of the Markusovszky University Teaching Hospital between 2014 and 2018. Method: We analysed the eye injury cases between 01. 01. 2014 and 31. 12. 2018 in the in-patient clinic of our hospital. 98 eyes of 97 patients were included in this study. To classify the injuries, we used the Birmingham Eye Trauma Terminology (BETT) and the new expanded classification of Shukla et al. Results: From the 97 patients, 16 were female and 81 male. The average age was 43.3 ± 22.5 (min.: 3, max.: 92) years; 20 patients were younger than 18 years old. 46.4% of the cases were right eyes, 52.5% were left eyes, and 1% was bilateral. The average time from the injury until the treatment was 1.3 days. The average time spent in hospital because of the injury was 5.2 days. The average observation time was 9.7 months. 95.8% of the injuries were mechanical eye injuries. From this group, 74.2% localized only to the globe, 20.4% were adnexal injuries and 5.4% were destructive eye injuries. From the globe injuries, 15 were closed globe, 60 were open globe injuries, and in 21 cases there were intraocular foreign body present. In 93% of the cases it was possible to keep or improve the best corrected visual acuity during the treatment. Conclusion: With the new classification, we could classify all of the eye injury cases easily. Depending on the type of the eye injury, with appropriate treatment we can keep or improve the visual function of the eye. Orv Hetil. 2019; 160(49): 1941–1947.
