INTRAORBITAL FOREIGN BODY
● In contrast, Intraorbital foreign bodies (OrbFBs) are lodged within the walls of
the orbit, which create the risk of damage to surrounding structures, such as
extraocular muscles and cranial nerves II through VI

INTRAORBITAL FOREIGN BODY
● Inorganic foreign bodies usually cause visual loss or orbital complications from
direct trauma, whereas organic foreign bodies also have a higher incidence of
developing severe orbital infections.

Academy of Ophthalmology. Ophthalmology 2002;109:494–500
CLINICAL ASSESSMENT
● Non metallic OrbFBs include inorganic material glass, plastic; organic material wood
● Organic Foreign body carry a higher risk of subsequent infection compared to inorganic
material
● However, some metallic , iron, copper, and lead, can cause spesific complication
retinopathy, siderosis, chalcosis, systemic toxicity

MANAGEMENT
Medical Treatment
● After diagnostic evaluation, all patients with OrbFBs should be treated with antitetanus
prophylaxis at presentation.
● In cases of organic FBs, the clinician should consider additional anaerobic coverage.

MANAGEMENT
Surgical Extraction
● In deciding whether to extract the FB, the physician must weigh the risk of surgery against
the risks of retention. Surgical removal is usually attempted for all organic OrbFBs because of
their higher risk of inflammation and infection. The removal of inorganic FBs depends on
their composition, location, and clinical presentation, and the impairment they cause
● If the globe is ruptured, it should be repaired and sealed to prevent loss of contents before
any orbital exploration for OrbFBs.

PROGNOSIS
● The clinical outcome of OrbFBs depends on the severity of the inciting trauma, and the location and
material of the FB. Visual loss typically occurs as a result of the initial injury and will be noted at
presentation.
● Posterior OrbFBs tend to confer a worse visual prognosis because of their association with
traumatic optic neuropathy, while patients with anterior OrbFBs often have at least 20/40 final visual
acuity.
● Organic materials elicit greater inflammatory reactions and increase the risk of endophthalmitis
and cerebral infection.
