  • Title: [Thoughts on a case of perforating flying-stone injury on a 10-year-old boy (author's transl)].
    Author: Scheerer R.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1976 Jun; 168(6):852-3. PubMed ID: 994393.
    Abstract:
    After a left-sided perforating corneal injury caused by a stone, with iris prolaps and wound cataract suffered by a 10-year-old boy, retinal detachment or shrinking of the eye (phthisis bulbi) can occur. On the other hand vision with contact lenses excludes only a few occupations, e.g. in the armed forces, railways, ships etc. The possibility of retirement neurosis (money for suffering!) must also be considered.
