Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical presentation, treatment options, and surgical outcomes of patients admitted with traumatic iris and lens-related injuries due to blunt trauma. Methods: This retrospective study included 43 eyes of 43 patients who presented with traumatic iris and lens injuries between September 01, 2022 and July 01, 2023. Results: The mean age was 46.1±14.6 years and the mean ocular trauma score was 74.7±9.9. According to the cause of injury, the most common cause in males is assault, and the most common cause in females is fall. Nine (20.9%) patients underwent pars plana vitrectomy. Six (14%) patients underwent cataract surgery with phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation into “the bag.” Conclusions: In conclusion, other concomitant pathologies may make these surgeries difficult to perform. Early evaluation and timely management are essential to achieve the best possible outcomes in patients with traumatic iris and lens-related injuries.
