Abstract
Despite the improvement in diagnostic technologies, imaging of intraocular foreign bodies (IOFB) located in the projection of the ciliary body remains one of the current problems of ocular traumatology. To study the possibilities of imaging intraocular foreign bodies in the projection of the ciliary body by infrared transpalpebral transillumination (IRTT). 10 patients (10 eyes) with a penetrating eye wound and the presence of an IOFB were enrolled in the study. X-ray diagnostic testing, ultrasound examination of the eye and IRTT were performed in all patients. In all patients, the IRTT revealed the shadows of the Pars plana and Pars plicata of the ciliary body on the sclera as well as the shadow of an IOFB. The technique of IRTT in patients with penetrating eye injury allows non-invasive imaging of IOFB in the projection of the ciliary body and identification of their localisation.
