Abstract. Purpose:To report ocular injuries due to blunt trauma in persons aged 60 or over. Cases and Method:This retrospective study was made on 28 eyes of 28 patients who were seen by us for ocular injury during the past 5 years. The series comprised 13 males and 15 females. Fourteen patients had had cataract surgery,comprising 1 male and 13 females. The other 14 patients,consisting of 12 males and 2 females,were phakic. Results:Falling down was the most frequent cause of trauma in 19 cases(68%),comprising 11 cases with past history of cataract surgery and 8 cases with phakic eyes. Eyeglobe rupture occurred in 12 out of 14 eyes(86%)with history of cataract surgery and in 4 out of 14 phakic eyes(29%). Final visual acuity was lower than 0.1 in 9 eyes with past cataract surgery and in 3 phakic eyes. Site of eyeglobe rupture corresponded with the corneoscleral wound of cataract surgery either as reopening or its enlargement. Conclusion:Senile persons with history of cataract surgery have a high risk of eyeglobe rupture resulting in poor visual outcome.
