Abstract

OBJECTIVE: TO STUDY REFRACTIVE OUTCOME AMONGST DIFFERENCE IN ZONES OF INJURY OPEN GLOBE INJURIES.

METHOD: WE ENROLLED ALL OPEN GLOBE UNDERGONE SURGERIES DURING PERIOD FROM 2008 TO 2021.DATA COLLECTED PROSPECTIVELY IN ONLINE FORMAT, PATIENT OPERATED ACCORDING TO PROTOCOLS AND FINAL VISUAL OUTCOME CONSIDERED 6 WEEKS POST LAST SURGERY. WE COMPARED VISION, SPHERICAL, CYLINDRICAL REFRACTIVE POWER AMONGST SUBGROUPS. DATA ANALYSED USING SPSS 22 USING CROSS TABULATION AND FISHER EXTRACT TESTS.

RESULTS: OUR COHORT INCLUDED 214 EYES 64.5%-M, 35.5% F WITH MEAN AGE 12.14.MEAN ASTIGMATISM FOR PENETRATING AND GLOBE RUPTURE GROUP 1.31 AND 1.67 D. WE FOUND SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE PRE POST VISION ACCORDING TO ZONES (0.003), BUT DID NOT FIND SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE CYLINDRICAL REFRACTIVE ERROR(P=0.791)

CONCLUSION: WHILE STUDYING WE DID NOT FIND SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN ASTIGMATISM ACCORDING TO ZONES OF INJURY BUT WE FOUND SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN VISUAL OUTCOME IN OPEN GLOBE INJURIES.
