Abstract

Penetrating ocular injury is an important cause of loss of vision

and may be associated with the presence of intraocular foreign

body (IOFB). Missed IOFB may present with non‑specific

clinical features which may delay accurate diagnosis and

proper management. We are presenting a case of unusual

retained intraocular foreign body in a 38‑year‑old woman which

emphasizes the need of careful review of patient’s traumatic

history and need of investigation like anterior segment optical

coherence tomography (ASOCT) in diagnosis, localization of

foreign body and follow‑up after foreign body removal.
