To evaluate and review the literature regarding sports-related eye injuries and prevention through appropriate protective eyewear.
The literature was reviewed regarding sports-related eye injuries and prevention of these injuries.
The review of the literature suggests that ocular sports injuries can occur with all sports and affects all ages. These injuries may affect professional athletes and amateur athletes around the world. There are between 40,000 and 600,000 documented sports-related ocular injuries in the United States every year. More than 90% of these ocular injuries from sports are preventable.
Most of sports-related eye injuries are preventable. Increased recognition of the risks of eye injury playing sports may lead to improved protection and a decreased morbidity from eye injuries. To help prevent sports-related eye injuries, education of athletes, parents, coaches, trainers, referees, and health care practitioners is critical.
评估并综述有关运动相关眼部损伤以及通过适当的防护眼镜进行预防的文献。
对有关运动相关眼部损伤及其预防的文献进行综述。
文献综述表明,所有运动项目都可能发生眼部运动损伤,且各个年龄段都会受到影响。这些损伤可能会影响世界各地的职业运动员和业余运动员。在美国,每年有4万至60万例有记录的运动相关眼部损伤。其中90%以上的运动性眼部损伤是可以预防的。
大多数运动相关眼部损伤是可以预防的。提高对运动时眼部受伤风险的认识可能会加强防护并降低眼部损伤的发病率。为帮助预防运动相关眼部损伤,对运动员、家长、教练、训练师、裁判和医护人员进行教育至关重要。
