  • Title: Lacerations of the equine eye: a review of 48 cases.
    Author: Lavach JD, Severin GA, Roberts SM.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1984 May 15; 184(10):1243-8. PubMed ID: 6735843.
    Abstract:
    Perforating corneal wounds in horses have a better prognosis than wounds that involve both cornea and sclera. Sharp objects tend to produce more isolated corneal wounds and have a better prognosis than do wounds produced by blunt objects. The records of 43 horses that sustained penetrating wounds of the cornea were reviewed. In addition, the surgical approach and postoperative wound management is described. The report attempts to provide more information regarding the management of ocular trauma in horses.
