A brief summary

Marco Zarbin and Robert Rejdack present this module on issues in the management of severe ocular trauma. Two complex situations that can confront trauma surgeons are management of a patient with a no-light-perception eye, and management of a patient with traumatic endophthalmitis. During the course of this module, Marco and Robert describe a number of these challenging cases and show examples of the surgical approaches taken.
