“…Since the most common OGI type in work-related accidents was intraocular foreign bodies, which are more frequent in men, this probably explains why the final visual outcome was better in men (median 0.75), than in women (median 0.001). As in other studies 6,13,14,19,22 a positive correlation was found between BCVAP, OTS, and FBCVA, leading us to the assumption that both visual acuity prior to surgery as well as OTS are useful indicators in predicting final visual outcome.…”

“…The prevalence of endophthalmitis after open eye trauma has been reported to be between 4% and 8%, with a higher rate (6.9%-30%) in the presence of intraocular foreign bodies. 19 A study conducted in China on 1701 eyes with intraocular foreign bodies found an incidence of 16.4%. 20 Our low rate of endophthalmitis could be related to Madrid`s extended healthcare system, which provides easy access and allows prompt attention to OGI patients, as well as the systematic use of both topical and systemic prophylactic antibiotics.…”

“…Previous studies have also shown evidence that final visual outcome is affected by time to presentation or repair [32,33]. However, some studies have also concluded that there may not be considerable difference in prognosis for eyes receiving early or delayed treatment [34]. In this study, it was found that initial visual acuity, extent of injury, need for intravitreal injection, development of endophthalmitis, and a ruptured globe were all predictive of a poorer final visual acuity.…”

“…16,17,18,19 Endophthalmitis is one of the most important risk factors determining prognosis in globe traumas. 20 None of the patients in this study developed endophthalmitis. Essex et al 21 showed that the risk of endophthalmitis increased by 1.01 fold with each hour after open-globe trauma.…”
