Eye and ear — The blast effect from lightning strikes causes ruptured tympanic membranes in {{c1::50}} to {{c1::80}} percent of patients [43,58,59]. A ruptured tympanic membrane can be an important clue to the mechanism of injury when a patient presents with altered mental status after being found outside with no other clear cause. Sensorineural hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, and injury to the facial nerve have also been described [58,60]. (See "Ear barotrauma".)
