Abstract
Open globe injuries related to BB or pellet guns result in devastating visual outcomes. They are often associated with multiple complications and the need for additional surgeries. Modern surgical techniques can increase the rate of globe salvage although final vision remains poor. The study findings highlight the risks associated with widely available BB and pellet guns and underscore the importance of eye protection in this setting.
