Abstract High-pressure injection injury to the orbit and adnexa is a rare but potentially blinding type of trauma. Few cases of such injury have been reported in the literature. A 27-year-old Indian man accidentallyi njected paint material from a high-pressure nozzle gun into his left eye. Radiological investigation revealed the presence of paint material in the orbital tissues and the ethmoidal sinuses. The patient underwent two orbital surgeries to remove the paint material. He later developed signs suggestive of limbal stem cell failure and was treated with limbal stem cell autografting. He also has ophthalmoplegia with a compensatory anomalous head posture that was managed conservatively. We report the clinical course and outcome of this unfortunate patient to highlight the complexity of such an injury and the need for a multidisciplinary approach in its management.
