    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2021 Jul 01; 14(7):. PubMed ID: 34210701.
    Abstract:
    Sympathetic ophthalmia is a severe sight-threatening disorder that can lead to blindness if not diagnosed and managed appropriately. It occurs most commonly following penetrating ocular injury and less commonly following surgery. Herein, we report a case of sympathetic ophthalmia following blunt trauma to the phthisical eye along with the pathophysiology and management of such cases.
