Article Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) developing after severe contusions of the eyeball. Some experts doubt the possibility of developing such a severe complication after a closed eye injury, however, the accumulated literature data and research by scientists demonstrate a high probability of developing PVR in such cases, which could lead to adverse outcomes. The article presents the views of different authors and systematizes information about the frequency and the risk factors of developing PVR after different types of closed eye injury. The main purpose of this review is to demonstrate a high probability of developing PVR after a closed eye injury, which should alert specialists at the first stages of treatment in such patients and stimulate timely prevention and treatment of this complication.
