Fish-hook injury of the eyelid

Fish-hook injury of the eyelid A 20-year-old man had a fish-hook injury of the right upper eyelid. The hook was advanced into the subcutaneous tissue in a forward direction and was extracted from the second exit wound of the lid without cutting. We believe that the advance-without-cut method may be useful to remove fish hooks embedded in the superficial eyelid. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Annals of Ophthalmology Springer Journals

Abstract

A 20-year-old man had a fish-hook injury of the right upper eyelid. The hook was advanced into the subcutaneous tissue in a forward direction and was extracted from the second exit wound of the lid without cutting. We believe that the advance-without-cut method may be useful to remove fish hooks embedded in the superficial eyelid.
