Ocular injuries of sufficient severity to necessitate admission to the Eye and Ear Clinic, Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast, were sustained by 1707 male patients and 325 female patients. Blunt injury occurred in 1063 eyes (49.2%), perforating injury in 1037 (48%), and intraocular or intraorbital foreign bodies in 181 eyes (8.4%). More than three-quarters of the patients (77.4%) were less than 36 years of age and 84% of all injuries occurred in males. Normal visual acuity (6/6 or better) was regained by 41.2% of the patients in whom the final visual outcome was known. The benefit of wearing seat belts in road vehicles and protective goggles in industry and sport should receive more publicity on radio and television and via poster campaigns. Compulsory fitting of laminated windscreens in all road vehicles is recommended. The vulnerability of children to ocular injury should be highlighted through the mass media, schools, and health centres.
贝尔法斯特皇家维多利亚医院眼耳诊所收治了1707名男性患者和325名女性患者，他们眼部受伤严重程度足以使其入院治疗。钝挫伤发生在1063只眼（49.2%），穿通伤发生在1037只眼（48%），眼内或眶内异物伤发生在181只眼（8.4%）。超过四分之三的患者（77.4%）年龄小于36岁，所有受伤患者中84%为男性。已知最终视力结果的患者中，41.2%恢复了正常视力（6/6或更好）。道路车辆中系安全带以及在工业和运动中佩戴护目镜的益处应通过广播、电视及海报宣传活动得到更多宣传。建议所有道路车辆强制安装夹层挡风玻璃。应通过大众媒体、学校和健康中心强调儿童眼部受伤的易发性。
