A 34-year-old man presented with a right intraocular foreign body after hammering a carbon-steel chisel 12 hours after injury. CT orbits showed a 3-mm hyperattenuating foreign body within the right globe, centered in the vitreous cavity. BCVA was 20/40. Anterior segment examination revealed a 2.8-mm scleral laceration. DFE demonstrated a metallic IOFB, a superior air bubble, superior commotio retinae, and Berlin’s edema involving the macula.
