| description | We present literary data on the incidence of sympathetic ophthalmia (SO) after an open eye trauma or eye surgeries, and the incidence of preventive enucleation. The statement that SO is today a disappearing disease is a myth. Even though it is a rare disease, its incidence after an open trauma amounts to 0.46% (by the data of Russian authors), or to 0.24% in children and 0.3-0.9% in adults (by foreign data) and does not tend to drop. After cataract extraction or antiglaucomatous surgery, SO is almost nonexistent. In contrast, repeated interventions, primarily vitreoretinal surgery, constitute a risk factor of SO, so that postsurgical SO in this case is 0.06-0.12%. The topical character of SO issue is determined by the fact that, due to SO threat the surgeons often (in 4.3 to 20% of cases) resort to preventive enucleation // Russian Ophthalmological Journal, 2016; 3: 95-100. doi: 10.21516/2072-0076-2016-9-3-95-100. |
