Ocular laceration without prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue - what does this mean

Ocular laceration without prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue occurs when there is a tear or cut in the eye's outer layer, the sclera, that does not cause any of the inner layers of the eye to protrude out of the eye or cause any tissue to be lost. this type of laceration can be caused by blunt force trauma, a foreign object, or a sharp object.

What happens during the disease - ocular laceration without prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue
