About this study

this study aim To determine the incidence of traumatic eyelid injuries presenting to a tertiary eye care center.

To describe the clinical characteristics of traumatic eyelid injuries, including the etiology, location, and extent of injury.

To evaluate the management approaches utilized for traumatic eyelid injuries, including surgical repair, medical therapy, and other treatments.

To assess the outcomes of traumatic eyelid injuries, including functional outcomes, cosmetic results, and complication rates

Read the detailed description

Vision is the most cared-for function of the human body, and the eyelids are provided to cover the eye for protection. Eyelids are not only protective curtains in front of the eyes but also contribute to the shape and beauty of the face. They are complex structures designed to protect the globe from various external trauma . Eyelids help to keep the corneas moist, protect against injury and excessive light, and regulate the amount of light reaching the retina. They are essential for the distribution and drainage of tears .

Traumatic eyelid injuries are a common occurrence and can range in severity from minor lacerations to more complex injuries involving the eyelid structures. These injuries can significantly impact a patient's visual function and cosmetic appearance. Understanding the epidemiology, clinical presentation, management approaches, and outcomes of traumatic eyelid injuries is important for optimizing patient care.

Eyelid injuries are an important subtype of facial trauma, which necessitates the ophthalmologist being competent and fully informed . Lacerated wounds of the eyelids are common features of ocular trauma and often occur in isolation without any associated intraocular injuries . Eyelid lacerations can be treated using different techniques depending on their depth, width, injury mechanism, and accompanying injuries. They can be repaired with primary closure, skin flap, or skin graft. Small defects limited to the skin of the eyelids can be repaired by direct closure .

Eyelid trauma may often appear trivial but can have profound effects on injury-associated morbidity. Recovery of full eyelid function and maintenance of the lacrimal apparatus are important considerations when approaching lid trauma [. Proper information and education can help individuals to avoid eye injuries and their substantial burden .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing surgical repaire in people with Traumatic Eyelid Injuries, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact mahmoud Ismail Moussa, residant doctor (+201009847524, Mahmoud.16285235@med.aun.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of traumatic eyelid injuries (time frame: 2 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Jan 2025.
