Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2021, Vol 36, Issue 3
Abstract
A case of corneal burn caused by arc light due to electrical short is reported. Specialist examination: ischemic areas of the temporal limbus bulbar conjunctiva in both eyes were less than 1/3, the corneal epithelium was white and cloudy, and the epithelium was partially peeled. The corneas became transparent after 2 weeks' treatment of removing the white necrotic tissue, anti-inflammatory and dilating pupil. During the follow-up within 3 months, the patient's lens and fundus showed no obvious abnormalities. The injury mechanism of arc light caused by electrical short to the eyeball is discussed.
