Paintball-related ocular trauma: Paintball or Painball?
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to describe the type and severity of paintball-related ocular trauma and to determine the necessary precautions to minimize the risk of ocular injury regardless of whether adequate eye protection was used. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective chart review identified patients treated for paintball-related ocular trauma at the Ataturk University Medical Hospi...
متن کاملNumerical modeling of paintball impact ocular trauma: identification of progressive injury mechanisms.
PURPOSE To create a computer-based numerical simulation model for comparison with empiric paintball-ocular ballistic study findings, allowing identification of the dynamic physical mechanisms (stress, strain, pressure) responsible for intraocular traumatic injury accompanying blunt ocular impact. Virtual experiments with numerical models could exploit mathematical "instrumentation" to facilitat...
متن کاملTarget lesions and other paintball injuries.
Paintball is a popular combat game, with more than 5 million participants per year. As it has increased in popularity, the incidence of paintball-related injuries also has increased. The most common injuries are classic, benign skin lesions that are easily recognized if one is aware of them. Devastating eye injuries also may occur if participants do not wear face masks. Other reported injuries ...
متن کاملBlunt eye trauma: empirical histopathologic paintball impact thresholds in fresh mounted porcine eyes.
PURPOSE Ballistic studies were conducted using gelatin-embedded abattoir-fresh porcine eyes suspended within clear acrylic orbits to discern the energy required to produce specific ocular injuries. Paintball impact provides a robust ballistic model for isolating and quantifying the role of direct blunt force in ocular trauma. METHODS Fifty-nine porcine orbital preparations received direct blo...
متن کاملPaintball trauma and mechanisms of optic nerve injury: rotational avulsion and rebound evulsion.
PURPOSE Ballistic impact studies and supercomputer modeling were performed to elicit the mechanisms of optic nerve rupture that may accompany blunt ocular trauma. METHODS Paintball ocular impact responses were studied with abattoir-fresh porcine eyes. Physics-based numerical code CTH was used to produce robust geometric and constitutive models of the eye and orbit, providing a comparative 3-D...
