Introduction and Purpose: Our study aims to assess the causes, findings and clinical outcomes of childhood eye injury.MOTHES and REQUISITES: The files of patients under the age of 18 followed by the diagnosis of eye injury were reviewed backwards. Age, gender, the cause of the trauma, vision severity, pre- and post-chirurgical eye examination findings, the treatment applied, complications and follow-up periods were recorded. The injury was divided into three corneal, skleral and corneoscleral. The first and last sights were compared between the groups. The average age of patients was 7.8 ± 4.3 years. In twenty-two cases, 48.9% of the right eye and 51.1% of the left eye were affected. The injury has been caused by various causes such as kitchen tools, stone, wood, iron, pen. In 51.1 percent of cases corneal, 17.8 percent scleral and 31.1 percent corneoscleral injuries were present. Thirty-four percent of the cases were traumatic cataract surgery. In 75.6 percent of cases uvea damage, in 55.6 percent of cases there was hyphema. Retina decomposition developed in 3.6% of people. During the first application, the average vision accuracy was 1,0 logMAR in the corneal group, 1,1 logMAR in the skleral group, and 1,7 logMAR in the corneoscleral group found p=0,006 . The last average visual sharpness was 0.2 logMAR in the corneal group, 0.4 logMAR in the skleral group, 0.3 logMAR in the corneoscleral group found p>0.05 . CONTRACT and RESULT: In childhood, eye-related injuries are often accompanied by uvea damage and traumatic cataracts. Injury is mostly due to preventable causes and permanent vision deficiency is frequently observed.
