Ocular injury secondary to sheep bile exposure.

Alfin Taddeo Okullo1, Tim Low, Louise Leslie Baker.   

Abstract

A 57-year-old abattoir worker was seen at a general practitioner after sheep bile splashed into his left eye. Flourescein examination revealed extensive ulceration involving at least two-thirds of the corneal surface. Copious irrigation with normal saline, application of chloramphenicol ointment and an eye patch resulted in excellent healing within 2 days with return to normal vision for the patient thereafter.
