    Abstract Summary: The 1917 Halifax Explosion was an unfortunate but predictable tragedy, given the sea traffic and munitions cargo, resulting in sudden large-scale damage and catastrophic injuries, with 1950 dead and 8000 injured. Although generous support was received from the United States, the bulk of the medical work was undertaken using local resources through an immediate, massive, centrally coordinated medical response. The incredible care provided 100 years ago by these Canadian physicians, nurses and students is often forgotten, but deserves attention. The local medical response to the 1917 disaster is an early example of coordinated mass casualty relief, the first in Canada, and remains relevant to modern disaster preparedness planning. This commentary has an appendix, available at canjsurg.ca/016317-a1.

    Abstract Unlabelled: We describe the case of a 95-year-old woman with dense nuclear sclerotic cataracts and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma. Preoperative phacodonesis was noted on slitlamp biomicroscopy. During surgery, a localized anterior capsule dehiscence occurred with visible snapping of the anterior capsule over the capsulorhexis edge. This preferential anterior zonular dehiscence occurred during the lateral separation of 2 hemisegments of nucleus; the nuclear fragments protected the equatorial and posterior zonular fibers, avoiding zonular dialysis. The case was completed without incident after recognition and management of the zonular instability. The anterior capsular snap is a new sign of intraoperative anterior zonular dehiscence.

    Abstract Background: Despite its prominence in Canadian history, there are few publications about the Halifax Explosion of 1917 that deal with the care of victims with eye injuries.
    Methods: Archived documents relating to the nature and treatment of eye injuries sustained during the Halifax Explosion were reviewed at the Public Archives of Nova Scotia and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. A review of current literature was performed.
    Results: Detailed accounts regarding the personal and surgical experience of 2 ophthalmologists, G.H. Cox and F.T. Tooke, were found. Several unpublished government and personal documents on eye injuries sustained during the Halifax Explosion are filed at the Public Archives of Nova Scotia. Twelve ophthalmologists treated 592 people with eye injuries and performed 249 enucleations. Sixteen people had double enucleations. Most of the eye injuries were caused by shards of shattered glass. Sympathetic ophthalmia was the feared complication for penetrating eye injuries and a common indication for enucleation in 1917. A Blind Relief Fund was established to help treat, rehabilitate, and compensate the visually impaired.
    Interpretation: Many of the eye injuries sustained during the Halifax Explosion were due to flying shards of glass. Details of their treatment provide insight into a unique and devastating event in Canadian medical history and demonstrate how eye injuries were managed in 1917.

    Abstract Explosions, man-made and accidental, continue to require improved emergency medical responses. In the 1917 Halifax Explosion, an inordinate number of penetrating eye injuries occurred. A review of their treatment provides insight into a traumatic event with unique ophthalmological importance. Archived personal and government documents relating to the Halifax Explosion were reviewed at the Public Archives of Nova Scotia, Canada, along with a review of current literature. Twelve ophthalmologists treated 592 people with eye injuries and performed 249 enucleations. Sixteen people had both eyes enucleated. Most of the eye injuries were caused by shards of shattered glass. A Blind Relief Fund was established to help treat and rehabilitate the visually impaired. The injured were given pensions through the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, which continue to this day. Sympathetic ophthalmia was the feared complication for penetrating eye injuries and a common indication for enucleation in 1917. Even so, the severity and the overwhelming number of eye injuries sustained during the Halifax Explosion made it impossible for lengthy eye-saving procedures to be performed. Enucleation was often the only option.
