Open-globe injuries (OGI) result in complicated and diverse conditions with different mechanisms and anatomical locations, which lead to completely different outcomes based on when to perform pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) after trauma. The PPV operation time points are generally divided into early (0 - 3 days), delayed (4 - 14 days), and late (> 2 weeks). There are still some controversies about the PPV time points after OGI. Injuries with intraocular foreign bodies or high risk of infection usually need early surgery to reduce the occurrence of endophthalmitis. However corneal edema and vitreous hemorrhage can increase the difficulties for early diagnosis and surgery. If there is choroidal hemorrhage or severe trauma in the back part of the eye, delayed intervention can allow the blood clots to be liquefied and removed easily. But there is higher incidence of postoperative complications. Late surgery can reduce the difficulty of PPV, but the increased incidence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy may lead to severe retinal traction, tears and postoperative scar formation.
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of vitreo-retinal surgery on oclular siderosis. Methods The clinical data of 22 patinets (22 eyes) with ocular siderosis due to the magnetic foreign body at intraocular postsegment were retrospectively analyzed. The patients aged from 6 to 54 years (average 40 years), including 21 males and 1 femal. The duration of the magnetic foreign body remained in the eye lasted for 1 month to 20 years. The preoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was ＜0.01 in 15 eyes, 0.01-0.15 in 5 eyes and 0.1-0.2 in 2 eyes. There was Intra-vitreous foreign body in 18 eyes and ocular wall embedded foreign body in 4 eyes; intraocular foreign body (IOFB) combined with cataract in 18 eyes; combined with retinal detachment in 3 eyes; scleral buckling combined with silicon oil filled in 12 eyes and C3F8 filled in 7 eyes. Cataract extraction was performed in 12 eyes, and 2 eyes underwent filtrating surgery. Results The IOFB was successfully removed by one-off surgery in 22 eyes. BCVA increased in 20 eyes (90.9％) and kept unchanged in 2 eyes (9.1%), including＜0.1 in 7 eyes, 0.1-0.4 in 8 eyes, and 0.5-1.0 in 7 eyes. Operative complications involved retinal holes with retinal detachment in 2 eyes and vitreous haemorrhage secondary to enlarge sclera incision in 2 eyes. Postoperative complications included secondary cataract in 4 eyes, retinal detachment due to silicon oil removal 3 months after submacular removal of foreign body in 1 eye, and retinal detachment 7 days after C3F8 filling in 1 eye; the latter two eyes had reattached retina after another silicon oil filling. At the end of the follow-up period, retina reattached in 22 eyes. Conclusion Advanced modern vireoretinal operation is effective on oclular siderosis, which can avoid the release of Fe+ and improve the patientsprime; visual function.
Objective To investigate the morbidity of ocular fundus diseases in Tibetan above 40 in Maqin county, Qinghai Province. Methods A total of 2511 Tibetan above 40 in Maqin county, Qinghai Province were seelected by cluster sampling method. The sampling survey of ocular fundus diseases was performed on the individuals with indirect ophthalmoscope, and the results were compared with the domestic existing epidemiological data. Results Two hundred and thirty five (9.35%) cases were found to have abnormal ocular fundus, and the blindness rate due to the abnormal ocular fundus was 20.5% (80/391 eyes) which was lower than the blindness rate due to cataract (52.5%). Low vision and blindness led by ocular fundus diseases were found in 155 eyes (65.96%)，including 74(47.74%) with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and 23 (9.79%) with retinoangiopathy. Conclusions The morbidity of ocular fundus disorder is higher in high plateau than that in backland; AMD and retinoangiopathy are the main diseases leading to blindness.

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a group of severe retinal degenerative diseases leading to permanent visual impairment. IRDs are the major cause of irreversible blindness in children and working age groups. Gene therapy is a new clinical treatment method and currently the only clear and effective treatment for IRDs, while, there are still risks in clinical research and application. How to standardize perioperative management and reduce the potential risks of treatment is one of the keys to ensure the safety and effectiveness of treatment. However, there is no systematic and standardized guidance on the perioperative management for IRDs gene therapy. Therefore, in order to standardize the perioperative management, the Fundus Disease Group of Ophthalmology Society of Chinese Medical Association and Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized domestic experts to put forward standardized opinions on the perioperative management of IRDs gene therapy in China after repeated discussion and combined with domestic and foreign research experience, so as to provide clinicians with reference and application in clinical research and practice.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the pathological features of bilateral retinoblastoma (RB) and the relationship between different treatments and high-risk histopathologic features (HHF). MethodsRetrospective series of case studies. From 1999 to 2018, 73 patients with binocular RB diagnosed by pathological examination in Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People's Hospital were included in the study. Among them, 50 patients were male (68.5%, 50/73), 23 patients were females (31.5%, 23/73); 11 patitents had a family history of RB. The mean age at the first diagnosis was 14.8±15.6 months. The average time between first diagnosis and first intervention was 3.97±4.74 months. According to the international classification standard of intraocular RB staging, among the 73 eyes, C, D and E stages were 2 (2.7%, 2/73), 15 (20.5%, 15/73), and 56 (76.7%, 56/73) eyes, respectively. Ocular images for each patient were obtained using a wide-angle contact fundus camera during examination under general anaesthesia. The treatment protocol (globe salvaging or enucleation) depended on the result of several clinical features. Globe salvaging treatment included chemotherapy combined with local therapy such as intra-arterial chemotherapy (IAC), intravitreal chemotherapeutics injection, cryotherapy, laser, transpupillary thermotherapy and radiotherapy. If globe salvaging failed, enucleation was offered and histopathologic analysis was conducted of the enucleated eye, the ophthalmic pathologist read and evaluated the presence of HHF. Independent samples t-test was performed to compare the continuous variables. The pathological features and the relationship between different treatments and HHF were analyzed. Group difference was calculated with chi-square. Results Among the 73 eyes, the first treatment was enucleation in 21 eyes (28.8%, 21/73); 52 eyes (71.2%, 52/73) were treated with eye protection. After enucleation, 9 cases (12.3%, 9/73) had recurrence and metastasis, and 7 cases (9.6%, 7/73) died. The intervention time of patients with recurrence and metastasis and those without recurrence and metastasis were 7.4±7.3 and 3.5±4.1 months respectively; the first intervention time of patients with recurrence and metastasis was significantly later than that of patients without recurrence and metastasis, but the difference was not statistically significant (t=－1.561, P=0.154). The pathological examination results showed that there were 26 eyes (35.6%, 26/73) with HHF, 4 (26.7%, 15/26) and 22 (39.3%, 22/56) eyes were in stage D and E, respectively. Those who received other treatments before enucleation had lower HHF percentages after enucleation than those who did not receive corresponding treatments, but the difference was not statistically significant (χ2=1.852, 0.074, 0.000, 1.007, 0.007, 2.729; P＞0.05). Among the 26 eyes, 5 (83.3%, 5/6) and 21 (31.3%, 21/67) eyes were treated with systemic chemotherapy combined with and without IAC, respectively, and there was a significant difference in the percentage of HHF (χ2=4.422, P=0.035). ConclusionsIAC eye-preserving therapy before enucleation has a significant effect on HHF.
Objective To observe the relationship between position of normal central fixation and the position of the optic disc, and to find out the features of stability of fixation. Methods The position of central fixation of 120 eyes of 60 healthy adults was determined by MP-1 microperimeter. The position of central fixation relative to the position of the optic disk was measured. The relationship between the central fixation and the age or refraction was analyzed statistically. The difference between the right and left eye in each individual was analyzed with t test. Results The central fixation located at the retina with the horizontal distance of 14.48deg;plusmn;1.85deg; and vertical distance of －2.14deg;plusmn;1.26deg; from the temporal edge of the optic disk. In the 120 eyes, 90% of the central fixation located in a bivariate normal ellipse. The normal eyes usually kept in a slightly moving condition when a normal person fixing on a subject. The median of horizontal and vertical deviation was 0.4deg; and 0.3deg; respectively. Conclusion The distribution of central fixation in healthy adults is a bivariate normal ellipse. When fixing on a subject, the moving extent of the eyes in the horizontal direction is larger than that in the vertical direction.
Objective To investigate the time and the mechanism of the toxic and side effects of silicone oil on ocular tissues. Methods 19 human eyeballs were examined histopathologically at different time intervals after silicone oil tamponade. Results Microscopic bubbles presumably containing silicone oil were found in sensory retina,RPE,optic nerve, pre and subretinal membrane,iris,anterior chamber angle,and retrocorneal membrane.In the eyes containing silicone oil for less than 9 months.Silicone bubbles were present only in the surface of retina(within preretinal membrane or macrophages),and after that time,silicone bubbles were noted within sensory retina.In an eye enucleated 39 months after intravitreal silicone tamponade,the parenchyma and subarachnoid space of the optic nerve were found to be diffusely invaded by silicone bubbles. Conclusion The histopathologic changes of ocular tissues are related to the duration of intravitreal silicone oil tamponade. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 1999, 15: 232-234)
OBJECTIVE :To investigate ocular vessel flow velocity in normal eyes by color Doppler imaging(CDI). METHODS: Ninety people (180 normal eyes)had flow velocity measured by CDI in three vessels,ophthalmic artery (OA),central retinal artery(CRA) and posterior ciliary artery (PCA),and the relations between velocity and affecting factors were analysed. RESULT: The diastolic and systolic velocity of OA,CRA and PCA were (31.7plusmn;10.9)cm/s, (7.2plusmn;2.6)cm/,s, (10.2plusmn;3.4)cm/s, (2.8plusmn;1.2)cm/s and (11.3plusmn;3.6)cm/s, (3.2plusmn;1.4)cm/s respectively. The velocity of OA had possitive correl-ativity with RBC,HCT and negative correlativity with age,while it revealed no relationship with sex, laterality of right or left eye,and normal IOP. CDI of ocular vessels in normal eyes is a triangle with three peaks and double sunkens in its frenquency spectum, revealed highly resistant,and both the pulsatility and resistive indexes were relatively high. The width of each frequency band basically was the same,and there was no obvious frequency window. CONCLUSION: The ocular application of CDI might lay the foundation of a comparatively comprehensive knowledge of the ocular hemodynamics. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1997,13: 99-101）
This paper reported the use of superficial temporal vessels pedicled postauricular island flap for the reconstruction of eye socket. Six cases were treated by this method since 1988 with universal satisfactory results. The disign of the flap was diseribed. The operative procedure was detailed, and the advantages of the flap were evaluated: 1. The donor defect was hidden behind the ear; 2. The flap has a relatively long pedicle, hence easy for distant transfer, and 3. the blood supply was highly reliable.
The opportunity of vitrectomy for opening eyeball injury is one of the important factors affecting the prognosis. Anterior segment wound repaired by routine suturing needs following and continuous treatment with vitrectomy. The key technique of the following treatment should be the debridement of the inside of wound and expurgation of the surrounding tissues adjacent to the wound, and the emphasis should be put on retinal reattchment and stable repairment.
