Abstract :
Objective:
To assess how employment status affects the
occurrence of ocular complaints. Study the relationship
between the emergence of ocular symptoms and a
history of RTA and assault. If any ocular signs of sports
injuries are present along with them.
Materials and Method:
The Department of Ophthalmology at Mardan
Medical Complex recruited 161 patients with traumatic
eye damage between January and December 2023 for
this prospective interventional study. Measurements of
visual acuity, slit-lamp exams, ophthalmoscopies, and
further diagnostic procedures such X-rays, fluorescein
staining, and imaging were carried out. Inclusion criteria
excluded chemical and sharp-instrument injuries and
encompassed all blunt eye injuries in outpatient and
casualty departments. Demographic data, injury details,
and symptom information were all collected. SPSS
version 24 was used for the statistical analysis, and chi-
square tests for ocular symptoms were used.
Results:
With 58.4% male and 41.6% female patients, the
analysis showed that the gender distribution had a
balanced proportion. A higher absence of occupational
correlations was seen in terms of occupation (83.2%). In
contrast to sports trauma, which was present in only
6.2% of cases, a history of RTA and assault was reported
by 55.3% of patients.Conclusion:
A history of RTA and assault has a strong
correlation with ocular manifestations, although gender
and employment status do not seem to have a major
impact. Ocular symptoms were noticeably more common
in patients with this history. However, there was a
weaker and non-statistically significant correlation
between sports trauma and ocular symptoms. These
findings shed light on the variables influencing ocular
involvement in this patient. Our comprehension of the
complex interactions between societal conditions and
ocular manifestations should be furthered by more study
with larger sample sizes and more variables.
