Histopathological ocular changes of intraocular and intra-orbital retained aluminum foreign body [experimental comparative study]

ABSTRACT

An experimental histopathological comparative study on the effect of aluminium administered intra-orbitally and that administered intra occularly on the ocular tissues of rabbits was done. It has been found that aluminium particles administered intra orbitaly produced similar reactions to that occurred after administration of intra ocular ones. The mechanism by which intraorbital aluminium foreign body affected the intraocular structures was disussed
