Ocular trauma has lately been identified as a leading cause of vision loss. Around 1.6 million people are blind due to eye injuries worldwide, with 2.3 million and 19 million having bilateral and unilateral vision impairment, respectively. In the Kashmir valley, ocular injuries caused by pellet gun firing have increased in recent years. When a single pellet gun cartridge is discharged, it explodes into about 500 small iron pellets that can pierce any body tissue, including the eyes.
As a result, one or more pellets may cause damage to the eye. To shed more light on ocular injuries due to trauma, we have organized an exclusive webinar by Dr. Sundaram Natarajan on 10 th September 2021 , from 6 PM onwards. Get your queries solved with the expert by joining this session!
