Conservative Management of Intraocular Graphite Foreign Body: A Case Report and Literature Review
Abstract: Introduction: Retained intraocular graphite foreign bodies are uncommon. Although they are generally inert, they have been reported to cause severe inflammatory reactions and progressive damage to intraocular structures. Case Presentation: We report a case of a 7-year-old girl with a retained intraocular graphite pencil lead foreign body in the vitreous treated conservatively for more than 5 years without any consequences. Conclusion: Graphite foreign bodies may be retained in the eye posterior segment without causing any inflammation or damage to the intraocular structures.
