Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 52-year-old man was admitted to the hospital after complaining of visual disturbance and ocular pain after the explosion of a tire. An examination revealed a 10-mm-sized medial scleral perforation with uveal tissue prolapse and hyphema. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a highly attenuated foreign body 2.0×1.2 cm in size in the intraconal space. Surgery was performed to remove the stone. Primary repair of the scleral perforation and of the partially ruptured medial rectus muscle was also done. We report a case of the successful management of an intraconal stone.
