Ocular trauma modelling.

Non-ophthalmologists must know how to detect, diagnose, and initially manage acute eye and ocular adnexal injuries in order to minimize their morbidity. Such instruction can be provided medical students in part from dog eyes and lids injured so as to produce models of common forms of ocular trauma. We describe the generation of such models and the format of instruction employed at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences.
