The authors report a case of lightning-induced chorioretinal burn accompanied by mild anterior segment injuries. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography images were used to document the progressive retinal and choroidal changes. As evidenced by this report, despite being sight-threatening, such injuries may allow for a significant functional recovery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
