  • Title: Penetrating pellet fragmentation. A complication of ocular shotgun injury.
    Author: Ford JG, Barr CC.
    Journal: Arch Ophthalmol; 1990 Jan; 108(1):48-50. PubMed ID: 2297332.
    Abstract:
    In three patients who had double-perforating ocular shotgun injuries, a single lead shotgun pellet apparently fragmented after striking the eye, resulting in two separate intraocular impact sites. The importance of detecting double-perforating eye injury and becoming aware of this potential complication with ocular shotgun injuries is emphasized.
