Abstract
Perforating injuries to the eye may produce a wide assortement of ocular lesions. Generally, the pathology of the eyes’ optics is accessible to surgical repair. The pathology of the retina and optic nerve, however, is often not accessible to surgery insofar as the function of the macular area and visual acuity are concerned As the necessary operations are often numerous and costly in terms of patient discomfort and hospital time, a preoperative forecast of macular function is of interest.
