Abstract

Remarkable advance for the treatment of opening eye injuries have been achieved in the past 5 years. Very valuable results have been obtained from the database of cumulative studies on eye injuries managed with vitrectomy. Timing of vitrectomy for opening-injured eyes was a significant factor to influence their outcome. Estimation of a quarter of injured eyes with no light perception could gain anatomic recovery with various improvement of visual acuity. Previous conventional treatment pattern for opening anterior segment injury lacked proper debridement on inside of wound which resulted unfavorable outcome. Vitrectomy at early stage (1-3 weeks after initial repair of wound) in selected cases could be a recommended treatment to improve outcomes in opening anterior segment injury.
