When i was born, my mother said my right eye was injured or smashed, something was wrong. the doc performed a surgery, any idea what this could been?

'Ruptured Globe': Sounds like a possibility based on the description. This involves there being a rupture in the sclera or the cornea of the eye requiring emergency surgery. Sometimes includes retinal detachment or a traumatic cataract.
