This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of alcohol consumption on the risk of ocular trauma. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 1,024 patients who visited emergency department and received ophthalmologic examination from January 1 to December 31, 2009. The patients were divided into 2 groups: those with ocular trauma (n = 494) and those without (n = 530); the influence of alcohol consumption was compared between these 2 groups. In the ocular trauma group, the association of the causes and types of ocular trauma with alcohol consumption was evaluated. One of 530 patients of no trauma group and 117 (23.7%) of 494 patients of trauma group were related with alcohol intake, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001). Concerning the causes, physical assault was significantly more common in alcohol-associated injury (P < 0.001). Regarding the types of injury, orbital wall fracture and hyphema showed a significant association with alcohol consumption (P < 0.001). Older age and nighttime injury were significantly related to the increased risk of alcohol-associated ocular trauma (P = 0.018 and < 0.001, respectively). In conclusion, alcohol consumption significantly increases the risk of ocular trauma.
这项研究旨在评估饮酒对眼外伤风险的影响。我们回顾性分析了 2009 年 1 月 1 日至 12 月 31 日期间因眼部外伤就诊并接受眼科检查的 1024 例患者的病历。患者分为两组：眼外伤组（n = 494）和非眼外伤组（n = 530）；比较两组患者的饮酒情况。在眼外伤组中，评估了眼部外伤的原因和类型与饮酒之间的关系。无外伤组 530 例患者中，有 1 例（2.3%）与饮酒有关，外伤组 494 例患者中，有 117 例（23.7%）与饮酒有关，差异有统计学意义（P < 0.001）。就原因而言，与酒精相关的损伤中更常见的是身体攻击（P < 0.001）。就损伤类型而言，眼眶壁骨折和前房积血与饮酒有显著相关性（P < 0.001）。年龄较大和夜间受伤与酒精相关的眼部外伤风险增加显著相关（P = 0.018 和 < 0.001）。总之，饮酒显著增加了眼外伤的风险。
