Abstract

A total of 100 patients with combined injuries of the organ of vision and eye appendages, inflicted in peacetime and under war conditions, were examined. The clinical picture of combined injuries in the wounds inflicted at the battlefield (gunshot and resultant from mine explosions) and of traffic, communal, criminal, and occupational injuries was studied using traditional ophthalmological and common clinical instrumental methods of examination. Common regularities of the traumatic process were revealed in combined injuries: mutual aggravation of injuries to the eye and its appendages, a considerable incidence of bilateral injuries, and simultaneous impacts of several damaging factors. The most unfavorable prognosis as regards visual functions in the group observed was for patients with war injuries, particularly those caused by mine explosions.
