[Spectrum of firework injuries at a university eye clinic after the COVID-19 lockdown].

Background: The handling of fireworks regularly leads to a variety of injuries affecting the periocular region. Due to the COVID-19 lockdown and a sales ban on consumer fireworks for the private sector the number of injuries massively decreased; however, a considerable increase was registered again at the last New Year festivities. The aim of this work was to present the extent and spectrum of such injuries in a maximum care center.
