[Combined operation for the foreign body in the eye complicated with traumatic cataract: an analysis of 88 cases].
The foreign body in the eye complicated with traumatic cataract is one of the common causes of blindness. The rate of blindness ranges from 20% to 48.9%. This paper analyses combined operation for 88 cases of foreign body in the eye with traumatic cataract. The visual acuity below 0.05 accounted for 85.2% of the cases before operation and reduced to 27.3% after operation. Postoperatively, the corrected visual acuities were from 0.06 to 1.5 in 73.3% of the cases and 0.6 to 1.5 in 22.7% respectively. The patients should be treated with combined operation earlier. The way of operation depends on the property and the location of foreign body and the situation of lens. Chinese-Western medicine treatment should be used postoperatively to control the tissue response. Combined operation can improve the effect, reduce the complication, the number of operation and decrease medical expenses.
