Self-inflicted penetrating eye injuries using a razor blade: Case report - BMC Ophthalmology

Background A 23 year old white male with a history of social and behavioural problems attempted to blind himself chemically, with alcohol, and mechanically, with a razor blade. Methods Observational case report of a patient who self-inflicted bilateral scleral lacerations with a razor blade...

A 23 year old man was referred from the emergency department with sudden bilateral eye pain and visual loss. On further history, he had been made redundant at work that day, and had proceeded to 'try and blind' himself as a result.

He had first poured alcohol over eyes, which was unsuccessful. He had then super-glued his eyelids open, cut both eyes with a razor blade, and pressed on his eyes. He denied consuming any alcohol or illicit drugs prior to the event. He also denied hallucinations and suicidal idealization.

Past medical history included asthma, failure to thrive, and a number of behavioral problems including depression, nocturnal enuresis, and being bullied at school. There was no past history of self harm. He had previously taken Amitriptyline as a teenager, which had since been ceased.
