SP - 204 EP - 206 VL - 194 IS - 4 N2 - A 15-year-old pupil was injured by an explosive mixture of red phosphorus powder and potassium chlorate causing seeding of multiple foreign bodies upon superficial and deep corneal layers. Unlike the few fulminant cases reported in the English literature our case had a benign course and outcome, without any late complications.
