摘要
Eye trauma is frequently seen by non-ophthalmology providers. This article elucidates a methodological approach to eye trauma. The first step is to address any life-threatening conditions. Then a focused history and exam is discussed, starting externally. Then, key history, physical, pathophysiology, and basic management of common, serious eye injuries are discussed: chemical injury, orbital fractures, open globe, traumatic hyphema, retinal detachment, traumatic optic neuropathy, and eyelid laceration. Finally, we highlight the practicality of telemedicine for areas where ophthalmology coverage is lacking. ( J Am Board Fam Med 2021;34:1018-1029.)
