Factors associated with final visual outcome in traumatic hyphema

Introduction: Hyphema is the accumulation of blood in anterior chamber eye that can directly affect our vision. Various factors play role final visual outcome among patients with hyphema, and there are very few related studies. Therefore, this study aimed to determine traumatic hyphema. Methods: This cross-sectional was conducted 62 cases hyphema presenting emergency department Tribhuwan University Teaching Hospital outpatient Bisheshwar Prasad Koirala Lions Centre for Ophthalmic Studies from July 2018 2019. A detailed clinical history obtained, followed by an ophthalmic examination relevant investigation. Data analysed using descriptive inferential statistics at 5% level significance IBM statistical package social sciences. Results: Projectile (54.8%) fall injury (12.5%) were most common mode causes trauma, respectively. The best acuity involved presentation 6/9 (6.5%), worst non-perception light (3.2%). At presentation, grade I (48.4%), least microhyphema (6.5%). Grades (p=0.014) significantly associated outcome. Anterior segment findings such as lid (p<0.001) lens posterior vitreous retina (p=0.048) also acuity. Conclusions: For optimal all periocular intraocular must be prioritized addressed accordingly.
