Introduction: Eye injuries are common and frequently encountered throughout the world. The consequences of these injuries are anatomical and functional and can be irreversible and serious. The purpose of this observation is to present the mechanisms involved in this rare case and, above all, to describe the nature of the injuries caused. Patient and Method: The patient was a 37-year-old male fisherman who suffered an eye injury caused by a fish hook, resulting in a corneal-scleral wound with lens opacification, which was treated surgically in a second stage. Conclusion: Oculo-palpebral trauma is fairly common in our practice. Such trauma leads to poor visual outcomes, and therefore prevention and, above all, early treatment are recommended.
