Overview
Flying pieces of wood, metal, glass, stone and other material are notorious for causing much of the eye trauma. Blunt injury by fist (during a drunken brawl), ball (cricket ball, lawn tennis ball), shuttle cock (from Badminton) and other high speed flying objects can strike the eye. Small children may indulge in bow-and-arrow games and firecrackers (respectively common during Dussehra and Diwali festivals in India) which can lead to eye trauma. Road traffic accidents (RTAs) with head and facial trauma may also have an eye injury - these are usually severe in nature with multiple lacerations, shards of glasses embedded in tissues, orbital fractures, severe hematoma and penetrating open-globe injuries with prolapse of eye contents. Other causes of intraocular trauma may arise from workplace tools or even common household implements. [1]
