Journal Title: Guoji Yanke Zazhi - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 7

Abstract

AIM: To investigate the incidence of neonatal eye disease, early intervention and follow-up observation. <p>METHODS: Totally 9 654 newborns born in our hospital from December 2015 to December 2017 were screened for ophthalmic diseases and symptomatic interventions, and the results were statistically analyzed. <p>RESULTS: There were 8 467 newborn infants(8 532 eyes)who were screened, accounting for 87.70% of the total; 7 047 of the normal group accounted for 89.94% for this group, and 1 420 of the high risk group accounted for 78.06% for this group. Screening found that some newborns had congenital and acquired ophthalmic diseases. <p>CONCLUSION: The screening of newborns for eye diseases can detect the abnormalities of newborns' eyes as soon as possible and intervene to improve the efficacy and accuracy of the treatment. Especially for high-risk neonates, eye screening is even more necessary.
