Hypobaric ocular trauma from a Popper

We have observed 3 cases of ocular trauma in children that were caused by an atypical, hypobaric mechanism induced by a toy called a Popper. When we initially notified the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission in 1990, Poppers disappeared from store shelves. We are concerned that this potentially harmful toy is making a comeback in 1998 (Smilemakers Inc, Spartanburg, SC; June-July 1998 catalog, p. 57). In 1990, packaged poppers cautioned against applying to face or skin; we are not sure that such warnings accompany current Poppers.
