To evaluate the relationship between final visual outcomes and other factors such as sex, age, right or left eye, initial vision, initial findings, kinds of IOFB(intraocular foreign body) and size, entry site, and final location of IOFB, preoperative retinal lesion and postoperative retinal detachment.METHODS:
We analyzed the records of 36 eyes of 36 patients of perforating ocular injury with IOFB retrospectively from September, 1995 to May, 1999.RESULTS:
The preoperative factors which were associated with final visual outcome were vitreous hemorrhage, hyphema, preoperative retinal lesion and postoperative retinal detachment.CONCLUSIONS:
The factors influencing final visual outcome in intraocular foreign bodies are hyphema, vitreous hemorrhage, preoperative retinal lesion.
