Methods: This retrospective study collected the data from 27 evacuation hospitals of Chinese army. All medical records of eye injuries in military personnel admitted to the 27 hospitals between January 2006 and December 2010 were reviewed. Patients' detailed information was analyzed, including the injury time, place, type, cause, as well as examination, treatment and outcome. Results: There were 72 eye-injured patients who had been treated by LASIK before. The incidence was risingyear by year. Among them, 69 patients were diagnosed with mechanical ocular injury and 3 with non-mechanical ocular injury; 29 patients had traumatic flap-related complications and 21 patients need surgery. There was statistical difference when compared with those having no refractive sur- gery history. Visual acuity recovered well at discharge. Conclusion: There is a high risk of potential traumatic flap problems after LASIK and it is not recommended in army service.展开更多

Methods: Eleven military evacuation hospitals located in different regions were selected for this study. We reviewed all the medical records of eye injuries sustained by military personnel between January 2005 and December 2009. Patients' information was collected. All data were put into database and analyzed statistically. Results: Totally there were 415 inpatients with eye injuries (442 eyes) and their mean age was 24.40 years. Eye injury accounts for 13.51% of all eye diseases in this study. From 2006 to 2009, the number of eye injury increased gradually. Among them, 175 (42.17%) were injured in leisure time, and 145 (34.94%) in working time. Twenty-two (5.30%) patients had an eye surgery or history of eye disease before injury. In all, 246 patients (59.28%) were sent to evacuation hospital within 24 hours and 64 (56.64%) underwent surgeries in 24 hours after injury. There were 389 patients (93.73%) hospitalized for 1 time. Visual acuities of 187 eyes (42.31%) were grade 1 (≥ 20/40) after injury. When discharge, 349 eyes (78.96%) obtained a visual acuity of grade 1. Conclusion: Eye injury has a very frequent incidence in Chinese army and much more attention should be paid to prevent it.展开更多
