Hemorrhage in the fundus, dilated pupil - what is the situation?

Patient's question:

At 5 PM on March 14, 2013, I was hit by a children's clothes rack, resulting in blood accumulation under the retina and dilated pupils.

Doctor's answer:

After eye trauma, the wound should be sutured promptly, and the prolapsed uveal tissue should be excised or repositioned to prevent infection. This may help prevent the disease. If the condition is detected, treatment for uveitis should be initiated. In mild cases, immunosuppressants can be used. In most cases, vision can be partially restored after treatment. Enucleation of the affected eye does not terminate the course of the disease, but some affected eyes may regain some vision after treatment.
