Abstract
This is a case report of a 59-year-old woman who experienced minimal trauma, in this case from a house cat which resulted in an open globe. This case shows how an open globe injury can result after minimal trauma and a method for non-invasive treatment. During this case ophthalmic imaging was used to assist in the diagnosis of occult open globe injury. There were many causes of open globe injury found during out search of the literature, but scleral perforation from animal claw was not yet described.
