[目的]分析急诊科收治的眼部工伤的描述性资料和特点，为制定预防眼部工伤的措施提供依据。这项前瞻性研究招募了在两年研究期间住进该中心的WREI患者。只有在工作场所和工作期间发生的伤亡才构成样本。数据是在急诊室通过面对面的接触收集的。男性占95.3%(n=778)，平均年龄28.1±6.5(15~54岁)，以25~34岁最多(46.2%，n=377)。大多数患者在金属和机械行业工作(66.4%，n=542)。近一半的患者经验少于1年(50.4%，n=411)。最常见的WREI机制是接触焊接光(26.9%，n=219)，其次是钻削伤(21.1%，n=172)。在“与工人有关的原因”中，“粗心大意”和“匆忙”是最常见的WREI原因(分别为21.4%和16.1%)。在与工作相关的原因中，缺乏防护措施的比例最高(18.7%，n=207)。将继续实施提高工作场所安全意识和为雇主和雇员双方制定完善的预防战略的方案。职业安全工作应包括关于工作场所眼睛安全的培训和提高工人对这种疾病的认识的运动。
To analyze descriptive data and characteristics of work-related eye injuries (WREI) admitted into the emergency department (ED) and obtain information to utilize in planning measures to prevent WREI. This prospective study recruited patients with WREI admitted to the center in the two-year study period. Only the casualties occurred at the workplace and while working constituted the sample. The data were collected via face-to-face contact in the ED. Males comprised the majority of the sample (95.3%, n = 778) and mean age of the patients was 28.1 ± 6.5 (range: 15-54) with the biggest percentage in between 25 and 34 years of age (46.2%, n = 377). Most patients were working in the metal and machinery sectors (66.4%, n = 542). Nearly half of the patients had less than 1 year of experience (50.4%, n = 411). The most common mechanism of WREI was noted to be exposures to welding light (26.9%, n = 219), followed by drilling/cutting injuries (21.1%, n = 172). “Carelessness” and “hurrying up” were the most commonly reported causes of WREIs among ‘worker-related causes’ (21.4% and 16.1%, respectively). Lack of protective measures ranked the highest among workplace-related causes (18.7%, n = 207). Programs to increase awareness on workplace safety and sound preventive strategies for both parties-employers and employees are to be pursued. Occupational safety efforts should include training on workplace eye safety and campaigns to raise knowledgeability on this disease among workers.
