    AbstractThis study emphasizes the importance of diagnostic first aid procedures to avoid the consequences of trauma due to foreign body. A 20-year-old man referred to our hospital with a history of having a sharp penetrating injury to his right eye. Computed tomography evaluation reported right globe perforation and intraorbital glass foreign body measuring 4 x 7 cm was removed. Perforated eye was repaired and traumatic cuts were sutured. Orbital and ocular injuries are common, and delays in management may lead to complication. A team approach is the best technique for these patients.
