Abstract

OCULAR TRAUMA IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TOPICS WHICH EVERY PRACTISING OPHTHALMOLOGIST SHOULD KNOW ABOUT. HOWEVER, THE KNOWLEDGE OF BASIC PROTOCOLS FOR IMMEDIATE AND LONG TERM MANAGEMENT OFTEN REMAINS A LACUNAE FOR YOUNG SURGEONS. THIS IC AIMS TO PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE CAPSULE FOR THE MUST-KNOW PRINCIPLES FROM DIFFERENT SUB-SPECIALITIES. THIS WILL EMPOWER YOUNG SURGEONS TO CONFIDENTLY MAKE DECISIONS AND KNOW WHEN TO REFER. THIS IC WILL DISCUSS THE BASIC EXAMINATION TECHNIQUES, NECESSARY INVESTIGATIONS AND MANAGEMENT OF DIFFERENT TRAUMA MANIFESTATIONS. IT WILL INCLUDE BASIC AND ADVANCED VIDEO BASED MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES FROM CORNEA, VITREO-RETINA AND PEDIATRIC EYE SURGEONS. IN THE END, MEDICO-LEGAL ASPECTS OF TRAUMA WILL BE DISCUSSED, WHICH WILL HELP SAFEGUARD TREATING OPHTHALMOLOGISTS AGAINST LEGAL IMPLICATIONS IN SUCH CASES.
