Patient in India Intralenticular metallic foreign body (IOFB) has been reported in 10% to 41% of open globe injuries. Mechanism of injury is predictive of the presence of IOFBs. High-velocity, relatively small particles are the most common foreign bodies found in the eye. Hammering, grinding, or shaving metal, machine yard work such as lawn mowing, and explosives exposure are particularly high risk. Courtesy of Parul Jain, FICO MD.
