title: [Complex diagnosis of fragment injuries of the eye and orbit].
abstract: The paper presents data on the prevalence and pattern of fragment injuries of the eye and orbit in the Sverdlovsk Region in 2000-2004. It describes the authors' system for complex diagnosis of metallic foreign bodies, which is based on the wide use of electron location in combination with other clinical, instrumental, and special studies. The comparative results of treating patients with the standard and proposed system, which demonstrate the advantages of the latter in small-sized fragments in particular, are given.
