Abstract
The patients of eye injury of inpatients and outpatients in county and prefecture hospitals were reported in some proportion in the ophthalmologic literature. Eye injury was the leading cause among the blind eyes determined at the discharge from the hospitals. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of eye injury has been the priority for Chinese ophthalmologists. In recent years, the international standard classification of the type and location of eye injury has been accepted and adopted in China. The level of primary wound management for eye injury has been raised in all hospitals. The timing of continued treatment sustaining vitrectomy procedures has been emphasized widely. The indications of primary enucleation have been strictly controlled by ophthalmologists. The remarkable progress has been made in rescue of presumed enucleation candidates. It is essential to establish a nationwide registry system and to conduct the multicenter trial for the control of eye injury in the future.
