ABSTRACT
Ocular trauma to anterior segment as an important cause of preventable morbidity to vision is commonly encountered in this tertiary care centre and requires a targeted approach for preventing visual impairment and loss to the population at large. To find out sociodemographic and clinical pattern of anterior segment involvement in patients of trauma to the eye, a retrospective study was carried out in 380 eyes of 354 patients in Regional Institute of Ophthalmology, RIMS, Ranchi during the period July, 2005 to June 2007. Demographic profile, nature of injury and visual acuity were studied from the records. More than 3/4 ths of patients were male, nearly 46.9% of them in the age group of 21-40 years, blunt injury accounted for 62.4% of cases and right eye affected in 260 cases (68.4%). Cornea bore the brunt most often (56.6%) and most common visual acuity at presentation was less than 6/60 to perception of light (41.8%).
