Abstract
The two presented case examples demonstrate that scleral perforation through highly accelerated, seemingly harmless confetti particles is possible. In addition to penetrating injuries that should be treated directly, contusions with serious consequential complications can also occur. A careful assessment and examination are essential to promptly provide the patient with the right treatment and to minimize complications.Entities:
