Abstract

In this study, we aim to document know the clinical spectrum and mechanism of ocular trauma and benefits of early intervention following injuries among patients presenting to CIMS, Bilaspur. This was a prospective interventional study of all ocular emergencies except chemical injuries presenting between July 2023 and June 2024. Overall, there were 662 ocular emergencies, of which 598 were mechanical injuries (598/662; 90.33%). Most cases of trauma belonged to the 21–30 years age group (322; 53.84%). The most common cause of injury were road traffic accidents. Appropriate preventive measures while driving, and at hazardous workplaces, can potentially reduce ocular injuries.
