CLASSIFICATION

  • I degree- hyperemia of various parts of the conjunctiva and limbus, superficial erosions of the cornea, as well as hyperemia of the skin of the eyelids and their swelling, slight swelling.
  • II degree b - ischemia and superficial necrosis of the conjunctiva with the formation of easily removable whitish scabs, clouding of the cornea due to damage to the epithelium and superficial layers of the stroma, the formation of blisters on the skin of the eyelids.
  • III degree- necrosis of the conjunctiva and cornea to the deep layers, but not more than half the surface area of ​​the eyeball. The color of the cornea is “matte” or “porcelain”. Changes in ophthalmotonus are noted in the form of a short-term increase in IOP or hypotension. Possible development of toxic cataracts and iridocyclitis.
  • IV degree- deep damage, necrosis of all layers of the eyelids (up to charring). Damage and necrosis of the conjunctiva and sclera with vascular ischemia on the surface of more than half of the eyeball. The cornea is “porcelain”, a tissue defect of more than 1/3 of the surface area is possible, in some cases a perforation is possible. Secondary glaucoma and severe vascular disorders - anterior and posterior uveitis.

ETIOLOGY

Conventionally, chemical (Fig. 37-18-21), thermal (Fig. 37-22), thermochemical and radiation burns are distinguished.



CLINICAL PICTURE

Common signs of eye burns:

  • the progressive nature of the burn process after the cessation of exposure to the damaging agent (due to metabolic disorders in the tissues of the eye, the formation of toxic products and the occurrence of an immunological conflict due to autointoxication and autosensitization to the post-burn period);
  • tendency to relapse inflammatory process V choroid at various times after receiving a burn;
  • a tendency to the formation of synechiae, adhesions, the development of massive pathological vascularization of the cornea and conjunctiva.
Stages of the burn process:
  • Stage I (up to 2 days) - rapid development of necrobiosis of affected tissues, excess hydration, swelling of the connective tissue elements of the cornea, dissociation of protein-polysaccharide complexes, redistribution of acidic polysaccharides;
  • Stage II (2-18 days) - manifestation of pronounced trophic disorders due to fibrinoid swelling:
  • Stage III (up to 2-3 months) - trophic disorders and vascularization of the cornea due to tissue hypoxia;
  • Stage IV (from several months to several years) is a period of scarring, an increase in the amount of collagen proteins due to increased synthesis by corneal cells.

DIAGNOSTICS

Diagnosis is made based on history and clinical picture.

TREATMENT

Basic principles of treating eye burns:

  • rendering emergency care aimed at reducing the damaging effect of the burn agent on tissue;
  • subsequent conservative and (if necessary) surgical treatment.
When providing emergency care to a victim, it is necessary to intensively rinse the conjunctival cavity with water for 10-15 minutes, with obligatory eversion of the eyelids and rinsing of the lacrimal ducts, and careful removal of foreign particles.

Washing is not carried out in case of a thermochemical burn if a penetrating wound is detected!


Surgical interventions on the eyelids and eyeball early dates are carried out only for the purpose of preserving the organ. Vitrectomy of burned tissues, early primary (in the first hours and days) or delayed (after 2-3 weeks) blepharoplasty with a free skin flap or a skin flap on a vascular pedicle with a simultaneous transplantation of automucous tissue to the inner surface of the eyelids, fornix and sclera are performed.

Planned surgical interventions on the eyelids and eyeball for the consequences of thermal burns are recommended to be carried out 12-24 months after the burn injury, since against the background of autosensitization of the body, allosensitization to the graft tissue occurs.

For severe burns, it is necessary to inject 1500-3000 IU of antitetanus serum subcutaneously.

Treatment of stage I eye burns

Long-term irrigation of the conjunctival cavity (for 15-30 minutes).

Chemical neutralizers are used in the first hours after a burn. Subsequent use of these drugs is inappropriate and can have a damaging effect on the burned tissue. The following means are used for chemical neutralization:

  • alkali - 2% boric acid solution, or 5% solution citric acid, or 0.1% lactic acid solution, or 0.01% acetic acid:
  • acid - 2% sodium bicarbonate solution.
At severe symptoms intoxication is prescribed intravenously 1 time per day Belvidon 200-400 ml at night drip (up to 8 days after injury), or a 5% solution of dextrose with ascorbic acid 2.0 g in a volume of 200-400 ml, or a 4-10% solution dextran [cf. they say weight 30,000-40,000], 400 ml intravenously.

NSAIDs: diclofenac (orally 50 mg 2-3 times a day before meals, course 7-10 days) or indomethacin (orally 25 mg 2-3 times a day after meals, course 10-14 days).

Midriatics: cyclopentolate (eye drops 1%, 1-2 drops 2-3 times a day) or tropicamide (eye drops 0.5-1%, 1-2 drops 2-3 times a day) in combination with phenylephrine (eye drops 2 .5% 2-3 times a day for 7-10 days).

Stimulators of corneal regeneration: actovegin (eye gel 20% for the lower eyelid, one drop 1-3 times a day), or solcoseryl (eye gel 20% for the lower eyelid, one drop 1-3 times a day), or dexpanthenol (eye gel 5% for the lower eyelid 1 drop 2-3 times a day).

Treatment of stage II eye burns

Groups of drugs that stimulate immune processes, improve the body’s utilization of oxygen and reduce tissue hypoxia are added to the treatment.

Fibrinolysis inhibitors: aprotinin 10 ml intravenously, for a course of 25 injections; instillation of the solution into the eye 3-4 times a day.

Immunomodulators: levamisole 150 mg 1 time per day for 3 days (2-3 courses with a break of 7 days).

  • fibrinolysin [human] (400 units parabulbar):
  • collagenase 100 or 500 KE (the contents of the bottle are dissolved in 0.5% procaine solution, 0.9% sodium chloride solution or water for injection). Injected subconjunctivally (directly into the lesion: adhesions, scar, ST, etc. using electrophoresis, phonophoresis, and also applied cutaneously. Before use, check the sensitivity of the patient, for which 1 KU is injected under the conjunctiva of the diseased eye and observed for 48 hours. absence allergic reaction treatment is carried out for 10 days.

Non-drug treatment

Physiotherapy, eyelid massage.

Approximate periods of incapacity for work

Depending on the severity of the lesion, it takes 14-28 days. Disability is possible if complications or loss of vision occur.

Further management

Observation by an ophthalmologist at your place of residence for several months (up to 1 year). Monitoring of ophthalmotonus, CT state, retina. If there is a persistent increase in IOP and there is no compensation with medication, antiglaucomatous surgery is possible. With the development of traumatic cataracts, removal of the cloudy lens is indicated.

FORECAST

Depends on the severity of the burn, the chemical nature of the damaging substance, the timing of the victim’s admission to the hospital, and the correctness of drug therapy.

Classification

The severity of local and general manifestations of burns depends on the depth of tissue damage and the area of ​​the affected surface.


The following degrees of burns are distinguished:

First degree burns - persistent hyperemia and infiltration of the skin.

Second degree burns - peeling of the epidermis and formation of blisters.

IIIa degree burns - partial necrosis of the skin with preservation of the deeper layers of the dermis and its derivatives.

IIIb degree burns - death of all skin structures (epidermis and dermis).

IV degree burns - necrosis of the skin and underlying tissues.


Determination of burn area:

1. "Rule of nine."

2. Head - 9%.

3. One upper limb - 9%.

4. One bottom surface - 18%.

5. Front and back surface bodies - 18% each.

6. Genitals and perineum - 1%.

7. The “palm” rule is conditional, the area of ​​the palm is approximately 1% of the total surface area of ​​the body.

Risk factors and groups

1. Nature of the agent.

2. Conditions for getting a burn.

3. Agent exposure time.

4. The size of the burn surface.

5. Multifactorial damage.

6. Ambient temperature.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic criteria

The depth of damage in a burn is determined based on the following clinical signs.

First degree burns manifested by hyperemia and swelling of the skin, as well as a burning sensation and pain. Inflammatory changes subside within a few days, the superficial layers of the epidermis peel off, and healing begins by the end of the first week.


Second degree burns are accompanied by severe swelling and hyperemia of the skin with the formation of blisters filled with yellowish exudate. Under the epidermis, which is easily removed, there is a bright pink, painful wound surface. For chemical burns of the second degree, the formation of blisters is not typical, since the epidermis is destroyed, forming a thin necrotic film, or is completely rejected.


For third degree burns At first, either a dry light brown scab forms (from flame burns) or a whitish-gray wet scab (exposure to steam, hot water). Sometimes thick-walled blisters filled with exudate form.


For IIIb degree burns dead tissue forms a scab: for flame burns - dry, dense, dark brown; for burns with hot liquids and steam - pale gray, soft, doughy consistency.


IV degree burns are accompanied by the death of tissues located under their own fascia (muscles, tendons, bones). The scab is thick, dense, sometimes with signs of charring.


At deep acid burns usually a dry, dense scab is formed (coagulative necrosis), and when affected by alkali, the scab is soft for the first 2-3 days (colliquation necrosis), gray in color, and later it undergoes purulent melting or dries out.


Electrical burns They are almost always deep (IIIb-IV degrees). Tissues are damaged at the points of entry and exit of current, on the contacting surfaces of the body along the path of the shortest passage of current, sometimes in the grounding zone, the so-called “current marks”, which look like whitish or brown spots, in place of which a dense scab is formed, as if pressed in relation to to surrounding intact skin.


Electrical burns are often combined with thermal burns, caused by an electric arc flash or ignition of clothing.


List of main diagnostic measures:

1. Collection of complaints and general therapeutic anamnesis.

2. Visual inspection general therapeutic.

3.Measurement blood pressure on peripheral arteries.

4. Pulse examination.

5. Heart rate measurement.

6. Respiration rate measurement.

7. General therapeutic palpation.

8. General therapeutic percussion.

9. General therapeutic auscultation.


List of additional diagnostic measures:

1. Pulse oximetry.

2. Registration, interpretation and description of the electrocardiogram.


Differential diagnosis

Differential diagnosis carried out based on an assessment of local clinical signs. It is quite difficult to determine the depth of the lesion, especially in the first minutes and hours after the burn, when there is an external similarity of different degrees of burn. The nature of the agent and the conditions under which the injury occurred must be taken into account. Absence of pain reaction when pricked with a needle, pulling out hair, touching the burned surface with an alcohol swab; the disappearance of the “play of capillaries” after short-term finger pressure indicates that the lesion is no less than grade IIIb. If a pattern of subcutaneous thrombosed veins can be seen under the dry scab, then the burn is reliably deep (IV degree).


With chemical burns, the boundaries of the lesion are usually clear, and streaks often form - narrow strips of affected skin extending from the periphery of the main lesion. The appearance of the burn area depends on the type chemical substance. In case of burns with sulfuric acid, the scab is brown or black, with nitric acid it is yellow-green, and with hydrochloric acid it is light yellow. In the early stages, the smell of the substance that caused the burn may also be felt.

Treatment

Treatment tactics

The goal of treatment is to stabilize the vital functions of the body.First of all, it is necessary to stop the action of the damaging agent and removevictim from the area of ​​exposure to thermal radiation, smoke, toxic productscombustion. This is usually already done before the ambulance arrives. Soaked in hotliquid, clothing must be removed immediately.

Local hypothermia (cooling) of burned tissues immediately after cessationaction of the thermal agent contributes to the rapid reduction of interstitialtemperature, which weakens its damaging effect. For this there may bewater, ice, snow, special cooling packs were used, especially whenlimited area burns.

For chemical burns after removing clothing soaked in chemicalssubstance, and abundant washing for 10-15 minutes (if applied late, do notless than 30-40 minutes) the affected area with a large amount of running coldwater, begin to use chemical neutralizers that increaseeffectiveness of first aid. Then a dry cloth is applied to the affected areas.aseptic dressing.

Lime Lotions with 20% sugar solution
Carbolic acid Dressings with glycerin or lime milk
Chromic acid Dressing with 5% sodium thiosulfate solution*
Hydrofluoric acid Dressings with %5 solution of aluminum carbonate or glycerin mixture
and magnesium oxide

In case of thermal damage, clothing from burned areas is not removed, but cut and carefully removed. After this, a bandage is applied, and if it is missing, use any clean cloth. Do not clean the dressing before applying it.burnt surface from stuck clothing, remove (pierce) blisters.

To remove pain syndrome, especially with extensive burns, victimsSedatives must be administered - diazepam* 10 mg-2.0 ml IV (Seduxen, Elenium, Relanium,sibazon, valium), painkillers - narcotic analgesics (promedol(trimepyridine hydrochloride) 1%-2.0 ml, morphine 1%-2.0 ml, fentanyl 0.005%-1.0 ml IV),and in their absence - any painkillers (baralgin 5.0 ml IV, analgin 50% -2.0 IV, ketamine 5% - 2.0* ml IV) and antihistamines- diphenhydramine 1% -1.0ml* IV (diphenhydramine, diprazine, suprastin).

If the patient does not have nausea, vomiting, even if he does not have thirst, it is necessarypersuade to drink 0.5-1.0 liters of liquid.

Seriously ill patients with burns covering a total area of ​​more than 20% of the body surface,immediately begin infusion therapy: intravenous stream of glucose-saltsolutions (0.9% sodium chloride solution*, trisol*, 5-10% glucose solution*), in volume,ensuring stabilization of hemodynamic parameters.

Chemical burns to the organs of vision occur due to contact with aggressive chemicals. They lead to damage to the anterior part of the eyeball, cause unpleasant symptoms: pain, irritation and can lead to vision problems.

An eye burn is not a disease, but pathological condition, which can be eliminated if you consult an ophthalmologist in time.

List of symptoms:

  1. Sharp pain In eyes. But this information will help you understand why pain occurs in the eyeball when pressing.
  2. Redness of the conjunctiva.
  3. Discomfort, burning sensation, irritation.
  4. Increased tear production.

It is difficult not to notice chemical damage to the organ of vision. It's all about pronounced symptoms, which gradually increase.

Chemical substances act gradually. Once on the skin of the eyes, they cause irritation, but if the burn is left unattended, its manifestations will only intensify.

Aggressive reagents gradually damage the skin of the eyelids and eyes. The extent of the “injuries” inflicted and their severity can be assessed after 2–3 days. But what types of eyelid diseases there are in humans and what drops should be used are indicated in this article.

Classification of burns


The video shows a description of a chemical burn to the eye:

Clinical manifestations

  1. Damage to the surface of the skin of the eyelids.
  2. The presence of foreign substances in the tissues of the conjunctiva. But what the symptoms of eye conjunctivitis in children may be can be seen here.
  3. Increased intraocular pressure (ocular hypertension).

Extensive damage to the skin occurs upon contact with reagents. The substances irritate the mucous membrane, which leads to redness and irritation of the anterior parts of the eyeball.

During an ophthalmological examination, particles of foreign substances are detected; they are clearly visible during a clinical examination. Carrying out research helps to determine which substance led to the development of damage (acid, alkali).

The reagents act on parts of the eyeball in a special way. Contact results in “desiccation” or drying out of the mucosal surface and an increase in intraocular pressure levels. But what are the symptoms of high eye pressure in adults is described in great detail in this article.

Assessing the totality of symptoms helps to make the correct diagnosis for the patient. An ophthalmologist determines the degree of burn, performs diagnostic procedures and selects adequate treatment.

ICD-10 code

  • T26.5 – chemical burn and area around the eyelid;
  • T26.6 – chemical burn with reagents with damage to the cornea and conjunctival sac;
  • T26.7 – severe chemical burn with tissue damage leading to rupture of the eyeball;
  • T26.8 – chemical burn affecting other parts of the eye;
  • T26.9 - a chemical burn that affected the deep parts of the eyeball.

If the tissues of the eyeball, eyelids and conjunctiva are damaged, the patient needs first aid.

So, the principles of its provision:


Do not wash your eyes with running water or use cosmetic creams. This may increase signs of chemical exposure.

Once on the skin, the cream creates a protective shell on top, as a result of which the effect of aggressive reagents is enhanced. For this reason, it should not be applied to skin creams or other cosmetic products.

What medications can you use:


The potassium permanganate solution should be weak, it will help neutralize the effect of aggressive substances. You can dilute potassium permanganate, prepare furatsilin, or simply rinse your vision with warm, slightly salted water.

You should wash your eyes as often as possible, every 20–30 minutes. If the symptoms are severe, then you can take painkillers: Ibuprofen, Analgin or any other painkillers.

Treatment

It is advisable to consult a doctor when the first signs of a chemical burn appear. The doctor will select adequate therapy and help reduce unaccepted symptoms.

Most often the following drugs are prescribed for treatment:

Antiseptics are part of combination therapy; they stop the inflammatory process and promote the restoration of soft tissues, relieve swelling and redness.

Antibacterial drugs prescribed to relieve the inflammatory process. They promote the death of pathogenic microflora and accelerate the process of cell regeneration.

Anti-inflammatory drugs also include glucocorticosteroids; they enhance the effect of antibacterial medications and antiseptics. With regular use, they reduce the intensity of unpleasant symptoms.

Painkillers local action used in the form of drops. They help reduce the intensity of pain.

If there is an increase in the level of intraocular pressure (most often diagnosed upon contact with alkalis), then medications are used that reduce the signs of intraocular hypertension.

Medicines based on human tears. They help soften the irritated conjunctiva and reduce signs of the inflammatory process, remove swelling and partially hyperthermia of the eyelid.

List of drugs prescribed for eye burns:

Solcoseryl is available in the form of an ointment; the drug significantly speeds up the healing process and helps to avoid pronounced scarring of the tissue. And taurine as a substance “inhibits” the development of irreversible changes in the parts of the eyeball.

Timolol is the substance that ophthalmologists prefer when signs of high intraocular pressure appear.

What to do if a chemical burn to the eye occurs after eyelash extensions?

Getting burned while doing eyelash extensions occurs for several reasons. This can be caused by heat - thermal damage or chemicals (contact with the skin of the eyelids or mucous membranes of glue).

If you have problems with eyelash extensions, you should carry out the following procedures:

  • rinse your eyes with a solution of potassium permanganate. But what to use to wash your eye if you get a speck of debris in it, the information in the link will help you understand.
  • bury in eyeballs Taurine or any other drops to reduce the inflammatory process (you can use drugs based on human tears);
  • consult a doctor for help.

If the damage is local, then contacting an ophthalmologist is necessary. Since only a doctor will be able to assess the seriousness of the situation and provide the patient with adequate assistance.

In the video there is an eye burn after eyelash extensions:

If glue gets on the skin, there is a possibility of developing blepharitis and other inflammatory diseases. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to take appropriate measures and consult an ophthalmologist as soon as possible. But how to properly use Kosopt eye drops and what their price is can be seen in this article.

You will also need to remove the eyelash extensions, since the glue irritates the skin of the eyelids and leads to increased unpleasant symptoms.

A chemical burn to the organs of vision is a serious injury that requires immediate treatment. You can provide first aid yourself, but subsequent treatment should preferably be carried out under the supervision of a doctor.
