Abstract

Introduction: zone II globe rupture(GR) is a subcategory of open globe injury that may cause severe sight loss.

Method: In this retrospective review data regarding clinical features, surgical details and outcomes of patients with GR from 2007-2020, collected in pretested formats was retrieved from EMR, exported onto excel sheets and analysed using SPSS22.

Results: our cohort consisted of 818 eyes 29.3 % female and 70.7% male with mean age 24 yrs. Equal on both sides.70.8% eyes presented with vision <1/60. On comparative study significant difference found pre and post-operative vision. (p=0.00) however when compared we observed that outcomes of zone 2 GR are not significantly different than outcomes of GR involving other zones. (p=0.164) Conclusion: zone II globe rupture is a sight threatening condition, visual outcome may improve following management but may not be better than GR involving other zones.[advanced_iframe src="https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=https://aiosproceedings.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/2021/E-Poster/FP437.pptx" width="100%" height="608"]
