A study is reported of all new registrations for blindness and partial sight in the county of Leicestershire, England, for the years 1965, 1975, and 1985. The number of new registrations for blindness has risen considerably over this period, but the increase is shown to be attributable to changes in the age structure of the population and under-registration in 1965. The number of new registrations for partial sight has also increased over the study period but by significantly more than would be expected, even after changes in the population structure are allowed for. The registration rates for Leicestershire when analysed by age, sex, and cause are shown to be broadly in line with available national figures. Registration rates for macular degeneration and glaucoma are increasing in both males and females, and rates for cataract are at a significantly higher level for women than for men.
本文报告了一项针对1965年、1975年和1985年英格兰莱斯特郡失明和视力部分丧失新登记病例的研究。在此期间，失明新登记病例数大幅上升，但研究表明，这一增长归因于人口年龄结构的变化以及1965年登记不足的情况。在研究期间，视力部分丧失的新登记病例数也有所增加，而且即使考虑了人口结构的变化，其增长幅度仍显著高于预期。按年龄、性别和病因分析的莱斯特郡登记率显示，总体上与全国现有数据一致。黄斑变性和青光眼的登记率在男性和女性中均呈上升趋势，而白内障的登记率女性显著高于男性。
