An analysis of 927 eye injuries treated at the University Hospital of Umeå, Northern Sweden, during a one-year period has been made. The estimated incidence was 8.1 per 1000 population. 86% of the injured were men. An overrepresentation of severe injuries were found in children and young adults, aged 10-19 years. 94.5% of the injuries were minor. The most common diagnosis was foreign body adherent to cornea or conjunctiva (40%). All chemical injuries were superficial. One-third of the sports injuries were caused by hockey-bockey and indoor bandy. Most of these were major injuries. The total cost of the injuries was assessed at SEK 1300,000. More information to the public concerning use of safety glasses and potential risks of eye trauma could reduce eye injury incidence.
对瑞典北部于默奥大学医院在一年时间内收治的927例眼外伤病例进行了分析。估计发病率为每1000人中有8.1例。受伤者中86%为男性。在10至19岁的儿童和年轻人中发现重伤比例过高。94.5%的损伤为轻伤。最常见的诊断是角膜或结膜异物附着（40%）。所有化学伤均为表浅伤。三分之一的运动伤由曲棍球和室内班迪球运动导致。其中大多数为重伤。这些损伤的总费用估计为130万瑞典克朗。向公众提供更多有关使用安全眼镜和眼外伤潜在风险的信息可能会降低眼外伤发病率。
