ABSTRACT This case report describes a 23‑year‑old male patient admitted to the emergency department following a motor vehicle accident, presenting with an open globe injury and intraocular foreign body in the right eye. Physical examination was limited due to anterior chamber hemorrhage, but bedside ultrasonography and orbital CT revealed globe contour disruption, vitreous hemorrhage, and a foreign body. The patient also had multiple facial and extremity lacerations, as well as maxillary and nasal bone fractures. Facial wounds were primarily sutured, and the patient was referred to a tertiary center for retinal surgery. The discussion highlights classification systems for ocular trauma, prognostic zones, major complications (endophthalmitis, retinal detachment, sympathetic ophthalmia), and the critical importance of timely primary repair. In conclusion, early diagnosis and appropriate surgical intervention are essential to reduce complications and improve visual and functional outcomes.
