Our reported case is a 40-years-old male with history of penetrating head injury by a falling bullet, crossed midline twice (at time of injury and during spontaneous migration). The patient of our report was conscious at presentation and showed moderate visual field defect. Although reported morbidity and mortality is high in such injuries, our patient survived with less morbidity and a subjective visual improvement after surgical removal of the bullet.
