N2  - The authors analyze clinical features of injuries to the organ of vision under extreme conditions of a local war conflict and present their recommendations on rehabilitation of the victims. The status of 203 patients with eyeball wounds inflicted under such conditions is analyzed. To optimize the outcomes of war traumas to the eye inflicted in peace time the authors give the following recommendations based on the specific features of such injuries and the objective conditions in foci of regional conflicts: (1) Rapid evacuation of wounded subjects to the nearest ophthalmological institutions; (2) Maximally early primary ophthalmological care with obligatory primary surgical debridement of the wound; (3) No attempts at removal of a foreign body during primary surgical debridement at local medical institutions; (4) the earliest possible evacuation of the victims after wound debridement to specialized ophthalmo-traumatological institutions for further rehabilitation.<p /> <p>Language: ru</p>
