The registers of visually impaired children in Denmark, Finland, Iceland and Norway have been compiled into a common database by a Nordic study group of ophthalmologists, NORDSYN. The database contains information on 2527 children aged 0-17 years. The total number of children with visual impairment due to retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is 247. ROP is the 3rd most common single diagnosis in the database. The age-specific national prevalence of registration (N/100 000) of visual impairment due to ROP varies from 12 in Denmark to 5 in Finland and Norway and 4 in Iceland. The differences can partly be explained by varying efficiency of registration. The age-distribution indicates that visual impairment due to ROP is not decreasing. Of the 247 children 175 had a visual acuity less than 1/60 and 58 had one or more additional impairments. Incidence studies on visual impairment in Nordic children are being prepared.
丹麦、芬兰、冰岛和挪威的视力受损儿童登记册已由北欧眼科医生研究小组NORDSYN汇编成一个通用数据库。该数据库包含2527名0至17岁儿童的信息。因早产儿视网膜病变(ROP)导致视力受损的儿童总数为247人。ROP是该数据库中第三常见的单一诊断。因ROP导致视力受损的按年龄划分的全国登记患病率(每10万人中的人数)在丹麦为12人,在芬兰和挪威为5人,在冰岛为4人。这些差异部分可以通过登记效率的不同来解释。年龄分布表明,因ROP导致的视力受损并没有减少。在这247名儿童中,175名儿童的视力低于1/60,58名儿童有一项或多项其他损伤。北欧正在准备对儿童视力受损进行发病率研究。
