“…Injury to the eyes and surrounding area is among the most frequently reported injuries caused by penetration by darts and barbs. Out of 15 such cases reported, at least three resulted in removal of the eye or parts of the eye (enucleation or evisceration) due to irreversible damage with loss of vision, and in others there was a substantial reduction of vision (Chen et al, 2006;de Runz et al, 2014;Gapsis et al, 2017;Han et al, 2009;Jey et al, 2016;Li & Hamill, 2013;Moysidis et al, 2019;Ng & Chehade, 2005;Rafailov et al, 2017;Sharabura et al, 2021;Teymoorian et al, 2010). In one lucky incident, the eye hit was the one where a person already had an implant, whereas the only seeing eye was spared (Moysidis et al, 2019).…”
