Spontaneous corneal perforation and extrusion of intraocular contents in premature infants.

B N Bachynski, R Andreu, J R Flynn.   

Abstract

Unilateral spontaneous corneal perforation with expulsion of intraocular contents is reported in two very small, high risk premature neonates. The one surviving infant demonstrated unilateral microphthalmos with aphakia and a small leukoma. The cause of this phenomenon is not clear, and measures which might be taken to prevent its occurrence are not obvious.
