TRAUMATIC EYE
there was no feature in other blood tests.Brain CT and Diffusion MR imaging were performed, there was no acute pathological feature.The patient was consulted to the Otorhinolaryngology clinic in this condition, hospitalization was given to the ENT service and continuation of treatment was planned. Results and Conclusion:The clinician should decide whether inpatient or outpatient treatment should be arranged in consultation with the relevant clinics, taking into account the patient's other known chronic disorders when organizing treatment in patients with a prediagnosis of peripheral facial paralysis.Treatment consists of two main forms of treatment started at the same time.The first is eye protection, which is organized as artificial tear drops during the day, vaseline eye ointment and eye closure at night, and antiinflammatory treatment should be started with 60-80 mg/day prednisone.Depending on the clinical condition of the patient, antiviral therapies can also be started in addition to the current treatment.
