Question
The patient’s left eye has developed retinal detachment due to an injury. Nine years ago, the patient underwent surgery and had silicone oil injected. Currently, the patient has no vision and experiences eye pain, tearing, and symptoms of nasal duct obstruction. Inquiry on how to treat the condition.
Answer
According to the patient’s description, if the symptoms of traumatic mydriasis persist for a month, the pupil may not fully recover to normal, leading to photophobia. It is recommended that the patient wear tinted UV-blocking glasses to alleviate photophobia issues. If the intraocular pressure is normal, there should be no major concern. I hope these suggestions can help the patient and wish for a speedy recovery.
