Published: March 2023

Globe avulsion is an extremely rare and difficult to manage emergency after trauma. Especially in cases of post-traumatic globe avulsion, management and treatment depend on the condition of the globe and the surgeon's judgment. It can be done in primary reposition as well as enucleation in treatment.

We report the treatment and follow-up results of a patient whose globe avulsion was repositioned on the 5 post-traumatic day.
