We completed a national study of blindness in children under 16. Approximately 80% of the blind children (that is, with vision of 3/60 or less) in the Republic of Ireland (172 children) were seen, 93 males and 79 females. The survey was carried out between July 1989 and June 1990. It is the first such study to be carried out. Ninety seven (56%) children had lesions due to factors acting before the perinatal period. Of these, 28 (16% of the total number surveyed) had lesions due to genetic causes; 69 (40%) had lesions due to factors operating in the prenatal period other than genetic factors. Forty six (27%) had lesions due to factors acting in the perinatal period. Twenty two (13%) had lesions due to factors acting in childhood. (4% could not be categorised in this way). The commonest single primary diagnoses were birth asphyxia in 19 (11%) cases and retinopathy of prematurity in 19 (11%) cases.
我们完成了一项针对16岁以下儿童失明情况的全国性研究。在爱尔兰共和国，约80%的失明儿童（即视力为3/60或更低）被纳入研究（共172名儿童），其中93名男性，79名女性。该调查于1989年7月至1990年6月期间进行。这是首次开展此类研究。97名（56%）儿童的病变是由围产期之前起作用的因素导致的。其中，28名（占调查总数的16%）儿童的病变是由遗传因素引起的；69名（40%）儿童的病变是由产前非遗传因素导致的。46名（27%）儿童的病变是由围产期起作用的因素导致的。22名（13%）儿童的病变是由儿童期起作用的因素导致的。（4%无法按此方式分类）。最常见的单一主要诊断是19例（11%）出生窒息和19例（11%）早产儿视网膜病变。
