Purpose:
|
To report thirty patients with bird attack related eye injuries
|
Methods:
|
This prospective study was performed among patients coming to Farabi eye hospital, Tehran, Iran, from 2010 to 2015 with a history of bird attack causing eye injury. The inclusion criteria were a history of bird attack by pecking causing eye injury and having treatment and followup record for at least six months after treatment. The primary eye exams included a full ophthalmic examination including evaluation of uncorrected visual acuity, best-corrected visual acuity; anterior segment slit lamp biomicroscopy and photography. For all patients with penetrating injury, primary repair was undertaken.
|
Results:
|
Thirty patients (10 females and 20 males) with a mean age of (23.3±18.5) years entered the study. The most common zone of injury was zone 1 (p<0.001) and lensectomy was not needed in majority of patients (p<0.001). The most common bird causing the injury was mynah bird (p<0.001). Those patients with baseline BCVA of less than 20/200 or those with endophthalmitis had statistically worse final BCVA after treatment. Patients attacked by Mynah bird had significantly better pre treatment UCVA and BCVA.
|
Conclusion:
|
The most common bird causing the eye injury among our sample of patients from Iran was Mynah bird which differs with previous studies indicating the rooster attack as the most common cause of eye injury. We also found that the most common zone of injury was zone one and the presence of endophthalmitis and lower baseline BCVA were significant risk factors for worse visual outcome.
