Background

This study aimed to evaluate trends in global, regional, and national burdens of intraocular foreign bodies among children and adolescents (aged 0 - 19 years) between 1990 and 2019 according to age, sex, and socio-demographic index.

Methods

The annual percentage changes in the incidence and years lived with disability rates across various age groups were investigated using joinpoint software.
