Abstract
We present two cases of ocular injuries caused by animal inoculation needles associated with full-thickness corneal lacerations and traumatic cataracts. Total vitrectomy was performed on the days of the incidents; both retinal holes and retinal hemorrhages were observed. The patients achieved final visual acuities of 20/25 and 20/16, respectively. This report seeks to share treatments that ensure successful outcomes when ocular injuries are caused by animal inoculation needles. We recommend early vitrectomy to prevent endophthalmitis while monitoring any retinal damage.
