The files of 206 patients who had sustained a hyphaema as a result of a contusion injury and had been admitted to Sydney Eye Hospital between January 1979 and December 1981 were reviewed. Most hyphaemas were small (189 or 91.7 per cent), occupying less than one-third of the volume of the anterior chamber. Fifteen patients had a secondary haemorrhage while in hospital and nine of these had a small hyphaema.
