Abstract:Hot liquid plastic may perforate the eye and fill it up to a great extent. Due to intraocular cooling, pieces with sharp edges may develop, thus producing further (mechanical) tissue damage. Intraocular plastic is able to induce a massive foreign body reaction. It may be detected easily by computed tomography.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
