Blunt trauma

Mild – moderate “bruise” ocular tissues Eye wall intact

Moderate – severe Rupture eye wall Very severe consequences

Page 3: Ocular Trauma

Lacerating trauma (Sharp)

“cut” eye wall Outcome depends on extent and

location

Sources of Injury

Blunt objects - 30-40% rocks, fists, branches, champagne corks

Motor Vehicle Injuries - 9% Play or sports - 1/3

golf/squash balls, shoulder/elbow, bats/racquets, horse Falls - 4% Sharp objects - 18%

Globe involvement in 22% of cases

Repair Timing

Ideally within 12-24 hours of injury Can delay up to 1 week

Patient factors Gross swelling

– Ice packs to reduce– ? steroid

Anaesthesia GA / LA

Page 20: Ocular Trauma

Repair: General Principles

Clean wound Remove FB Minimal debridement Careful handling of tissues Careful alignment of anatomy

Lid margins, lash line, skin folds etc Close in layers

Page 21: Ocular Trauma

Simple laceration Minor, partial thickness

May be steri-stripped if not under tension Sutures

6.0/7.0 absorbable (gut or vicryl) or non absorbable Remove at 5 days if non absorbable

Deep lacerations Repair in layers as needed Identify septum and do not attach to muscle,skin or tarsus -

risk of lid lag

Page 22: Ocular Trauma
Page 23: Ocular Trauma

Lid Margin lacerations

Approximate lid margin Tarsal plate first 6.0 vicryl suture - can use as traction

3-4 sutures to plate Spatulated needle is useful

Align lashes - silk Skin - nylon or gut or vicryl

Page 24: Ocular Trauma
Page 25: Ocular Trauma

Canalicular Lacerations Upper

Controversial (loss may not affect pt) Either

repair laceration and ignore canaliculus, or Stent canaliculus (Mini Monoka) and repair lac

Lower Usually needs to be repaired Repair within 24-48 hours Stent

bicanalicular or monocanalicular Leave in for 3-6 months

8.0 or 9.0 vicryl to canaliculus

Page 26: Ocular Trauma
Page 27: Ocular Trauma
Page 28: Ocular Trauma

Complications Lid margin notching

If small may resolve, otherwise requires repair Lagophthalmos

Due to scarring or tissue loss or septum into wound Try massage, may need scar release

Hypertrophic scars May improve with time Consider steroid injection into 4-6/52

Infection Rare

Tearing canalicular damage, lid malposition, pump failure

Traumatic ptosis Myogenic or neurogenic

Page 29: Ocular Trauma

Orbital Fractures

Page 30: Ocular Trauma

Orbital #s classification

Open or closed Internal (orbital skeleton), rim, complex (internal +rim)

Type Blowout - typically 10-15mm behind rim, just medial

infraorbital canal Tripod - disruption of zygoma at z-f and z-m sutures & along

arch Enophthalmos, malar flattening, inf lat cantus displacement

Page 31: Ocular Trauma

Pathogenesis of orbital floor blow-out fracture

Page 32: Ocular Trauma

Evaluation of the orbit Eyelids

Telecanthus - tendon disruption or nasoethmoidal #, suspect nld involvement

Globe Displacement, proptosis

Motility - ductions and diplopia, include FDT Pupil - APD, efferent, mydriasis Palpate

Rim, crepitus, retropulsion Nerves - V1 & V2

Page 33: Ocular Trauma

• Periocular ecchymosis and oedema• Infraorbital nerve anaesthesia

• Ophthalmoplegia - typically in up- and down- gaze (double diplopia)

• Enophthalmos - if severe

Corneal foreign body

Grinding most common cause Usually do not need surgery Treatment

Removal of foreign body with needle and/or burr

Children may require GA

Examples: Curling Iron Burn. UV Irradiation. Sun Viewing.

Page 59: Ocular Trauma

Chemical trauma Alkali Alkali agents are lipophilic and therefore

penetrate tissues more rapidly than acids. They saponify the fatty acids of cell membranes, penetrate the corneal stroma and destroy proteoglycan ground substance and collagen bundles. The damaged tissues then secrete proteolytic enzymes, which lead to further damage

Page 60: Ocular Trauma
Page 61: Ocular Trauma

Acids Acids are generally less harmful than

alkali substances. They cause damage by denaturing and precipitating proteins in the tissues they contact. The coagulated proteins act as a barrier to prevent further penetration (unlike alkali injuries).[5].

Page 62: Ocular Trauma
Page 63: Ocular Trauma

The severity of ocular injury depends on four factors:

the toxicity of the chemicalhow long the chemical contact the depth of penetration the area of involvement

Page 64: Ocular Trauma

Patients with mild to moderate injury (Grade I and II) have a good prognosis and can often be treated successfully with medical treatment alone

The aims of medical treatment are to enhance recovery of the corneal epithelium and augment collagen synthesis, while also minimizing collagen breakdown and controlling inflammation

Page 65: Ocular Trauma

Treatments

Early irrigation is critical in limiting the duration of chemical exposure

The goal of irrigation is to remove the offending substance and restore the physiologic pH.

Page 66: Ocular Trauma

Standard Treatments Antibiotics Cycloplegic agents such as atropine

or cyclopentolate can help with comfort Artificial tears- and other lubricating eye

drops Steroid drops- In the first week

following injury, topical steroids can help calm inflammation and prevent further corneal breakdown.[14]
