Highlights |
• | Perioperative eye injury (PEI) can be a serious surgical complication. |
• | No large-scale studies have assessed PEI in the Veterans Affairs (VA) population. |
• | We conducted a 6-year review of all consecutive surgical inpatients. |
• | The incidence of new PEI among our veteran patients was 0.24%. |
• | Nearly all PEI cases were treated empirically as corneal abrasions. |
