Abstract
We analyzed the records of 124 eyes of 124 perforating ocular injury patients retrospectively from June 1 1994 to examine the relationship between final visual acuity and preoperative factors such as age, sex, initial visual acuity, location of injury, length of injury, mechanism of injury, intraocular foreign body, traumatic catarcact, secondary operation, hyphema, vitreous hemorrhage. The preoperative factors that influence final visual were age, initial visual acuity, length of infury, vitreous hemorrahage, secondary operation. However, other factors such as gender, mechanism, location of injury, intraocular foreign body, traubatic cataract, and hyphema did not influence final visual acuity. Final visual acuity was better in the case of young patients, good initial visual acuity were age, initial visual acuity, length of injury, vitreous hemorrhage, secondary operation, However, other factors such as gender, mechanism, location of injury, intraocular foreign body, traumatic cataract, and hyphema did not influence final visual acuity. Final visual acuity was better in the case of young patients, good initial visual acuity, short wound length, absence of vitreous hemorrhage and secondary operation.
Key Words: Final visual acuity;Penetrating ocular injury;Preoperative factors
