Abstract

Ocular trauma and retained foreign bodies in the eye form a common occurrence in ophthalmic practice. Mild trauma may often be overlooked and patients, quite often, present late with serious complications. The clinical presentations and management of three patients who presented with a FB in the anterior chamber, within the lens, and within the orbit, respectively, are discussed. The diagnostic and management issues are highlighted along with a brief review of relevant literature.
