BACKGROUND: Vision is one of the most fundamental functions required for a quality life. In this context, eye trauma is frequently subject to medico-legal evaluation to determine both the severity of the injury and the presence of any sequelae, and, if present, the extent of visual function loss. This study examines the medico-legal assessment process following ocular trauma. The aim is to reduce potential confusion by providing explanations that offer standardization and guidance in forensic assessments.
