Abstract

A recent study conducted in Maharashtra, India, examined the clinical features and visual outcomes of ocular trauma in a rural Indian population. The study analyzed data from 299 patients with ocular injuries between January 2018 and May 2019. The research found that ocular trauma was more common among young males, with industrial work being the most frequent cause. Closed-globe injuries were more prevalent than open injuries, and visual impairment was more severe in open-globe injuries. The study's findings were comparable to the ocular trauma score study, confirming its usefulness in predicting final visual acuity. [Extracted from the article]
