Abstract

Many ocular emergencies seen in children can be managed easily by the pediatrician. However, it is necessary to be comfortable with the definitions, etiologies of disease, important points in history taking, physical examination and laboratory evaluation and to know when referral is necessary. This paper outlines a number of the more common ocular emergencies seen in children.
