Although air bags have reduced the incidence of fatal and severe injuries in automobile collisions, they have been shown to carry a risk of injury themselves. Ocular injury in particular can often be a direct consequence of air bag deployment. We report a 14-year-old child who sustained facial burn and bilateral ocular injuries affecting both the anterior and posterior segments due to an inflated air bag in a low speed motor vehicle accident.
尽管安全气囊降低了汽车碰撞中致命和重伤的发生率,但已表明其本身也存在受伤风险。特别是眼部损伤往往可能是安全气囊展开的直接后果。我们报告一名14岁儿童,在一次低速机动车事故中,因安全气囊充气而遭受面部烧伤和双眼眼前后节均受累的双侧眼部损伤。
