title: [Eye injuries due to pellet guns. Apropos of 7 cases].
abstract: The authors expose a series of seven cases of ocular trauma due to pellet guns. First, they describe the different kinds of lesions, their treatment, and their development. Then, they study the prognostic points, the mechanism of the secondary complications, and the therapeutic conduct to adopt in front of this type of perforating injuries with non-magnetic intraocular foreign body. They insist on the severity of this type of ocular trauma, and on the necessity of a modification of the law concerning pellet guns.
