This case report highlights the hazard of silver crafting without adequate eye protection, and indicates that occupational ocular argyrosis may still be observed in clinical practice today. In such cases, occupational anamnesis, ophthalmologic examination, confocal corneal biomicroscopy, and histopathology will allow the correct diagnosis that, in turn, is important for work-related medico-legal issues.

Abstract
This case report highlights the hazard of silver crafting without adequate eye protection, and indicates that occupational ocular argyrosis may still be observed in clinical practice today. In such cases, occupational anamnesis, ophthalmologic examination, confocal corneal biomicroscopy, and histopathology will allow the correct diagnosis that, in turn, is important for work-related medico-legal issues.File in questo prodotto:
