Three cases of sympathetic ophthalmia that occurred up to 62 years after an ocular injury are reported. Sympathetic ophthalmia occurred spontaneously in the first case, 62 years after a shot-gun pellet had penetrated one eye. In the other two cases, further surgery had been performed on previously-injured eyes. This was followed by a bilateral granulomatous panuveitis that developed within a week in one case and after seven years in the other case. The risk of elective surgery in eyes that are already at risk of sympathetic ophthalmia and the practical aspects of patient counselling are discussed.
报告了3例眼外伤后长达62年发生交感性眼炎的病例。第一例在霰弹击中一只眼睛62年后自发发生交感性眼炎。另外两例中，先前受伤的眼睛进行了进一步手术。随后发生双侧肉芽肿性全葡萄膜炎，一例在一周内发生，另一例在七年后发生。讨论了对已存在交感性眼炎风险的眼睛进行择期手术的风险以及对患者咨询的实际问题。
