Abstract

A 19-year-old male presented with accidental high-voltage electric burns following contact with a transformer while catching ball and developed right eye count finger vision and no perception of light in left eye. On examination, there were full thickness burns on upper half of left side of face, lids, and left leg involving 3rd, 4th, and 5th toes. Three surgeries were performed by the plastic surgeon for overall aesthetic look. The right eye regained vision following cataract surgery, but there was cosmetic and functional loss of left eye. This case report highlights that high-voltage electric burns of face and eye require proper surgical management and final visual outcome depends on amount of damage.15
