Pediatric ophthalmology differs from adult eye care in many aspects. Some disorders are seen only in children although others may be found in adults as well. A major difference between pediatric and adult ophthalmology is the impact that almost any disorder may have on the developing visual system. This article addresses common pediatric eye disorders and their potential effects on the visually impaired immature child. Referral guidelines and vision screening are also discussed.
小儿眼科在许多方面与成人眼保健不同。有些病症仅见于儿童,尽管其他一些病症也可能在成人中出现。小儿眼科和成人眼科之间的一个主要区别在于,几乎任何病症都可能对发育中的视觉系统产生影响。本文探讨常见的小儿眼部病症及其对视力受损的未成熟儿童的潜在影响。还讨论了转诊指南和视力筛查。
