Particular Localization of Foreign Bodies in the Eyelids: About Two Cases at Sikasso Hospital

Palpebral trauma is common in Sikasso hospital. We report a particular localization of foreign bodies (the crystal rod of the pen (Bic) and of a fish hook) in the eyelids of two children. The injuries occurred in a context of intentional assault and battery in the school environment for pen crystal and margouillat hunting with the hook. The treatment was surgical and the postoperative course was simple. Prevention through awareness would be necessary to avoid eyelid trauma.
