PY - 2021 T2 - Current Medical Diagnosis & Treatment 2021 AB - Ocular trauma, which occurs in many different circumstances and by a variety of mechanisms, is an important cause of avoidable severe visual impairment at all ages, and it is the leading cause of monocular blindness in young adult men in the United States.
