Herein the authors call attention to the importance of ophthalmic evaluation in the setting of multi-trauma, particularly with facial and orbital fractures. In institutions such as ours, a tertiary general hospital, where such fractures are initially managed by a non-ophthalmic team such as trauma or maxillofacial surgeons, we would advocate for prompt referral to the ophthalmology team for assessment as described by our case of a choroidal rupture in the setting of multi-trauma.
