Risk factors and prognosis of pediatric open globe injuries without initial light perception
Ophthalmologica Dec 02, 2020
Wen X, Yuan M, Li C, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective, comparative, interventional case-control study to examine the possible risk factors and prognosis of initial no light perception (NLP) in pediatric open globe injuries (POGI). From January 1, 2011, to December 31, 2015, 865 eyes of POGI patients presenting to a tertiary referral ophthalmic center were included. In POGI with initial NLP, severe intraocular hemorrhage, retinal detachment, choroidal damage and endophthalmitis occurred more commonly. The major factor linked to the NLP prognosis was choroidal damage. By vitreoretinal surgery, traumatized eyes with initial NLP may be anatomically and functionally preserved.
