Abstract
The occurrence of soft-tissue foreign bodies (FBs) in and around the orbit is often seen after trauma. Wound exploration and removal of the embedded materials is the standard of care. Relevant investigations help to detect retained FBs in suspected cases. However, hidden FB and their migration, both early and late, has been reported often and associated with morbidity and mortality. Here, we report a case of spontaneous migration of sharp-edged glass splinter retained in the periocular area in a young female who had sustained trauma in the past. Evaluation of the splinter under high-power magnification will help to identify the morphology and source of injury in such cases.
