Epidemiology and Clinical Patterns of Ocular Trauma at a Level 1 Trauma Center in Korea.

CONCLUSION: This is the first study on the epidemiology and clinical manifestations in trauma patients with ocular injuries at a level 1 trauma center. The incidences of ocular injuries with major trauma were about 1.47-1.57/100,000. BETTS, OTS, lid laceration and initial VA were associated with final VA. We expect our study to provide a basis of data for the evaluation, prevention, and management of ocular injuries in patients with systemic trauma. PMID: 33398942 [PubMed - in process]
