Background: Orbital emphysema and pneumocephalus rarely occur without associated skull fractures. Over the past decades, a few case reports have documented compressed air injuries as a rare cause of orbital emphysema and pneumocephalus in the absence of concomitant skull fractures leading to various injuries.
Case Presentation: We illustrate here a 12-year-old boy who presented with painless left eye swelling following an accidental compressed air blast injury.
