简介：目的：对一个常染色体显性遗传的先天性脉络膜缺损家系进行ABCB6基因的突变筛查,明确致病基因。方法：近来有报道ABCB6基因突变可导致先天性脉络膜缺损,我们搜集了一个中国汉族先天性脉络膜缺损家系,采集家系成员及一百位正常对照人群的静脉血5mL,使用PCR产物直接测序对ABCB6基因进行突变筛查。结果：在该家系中我们发现了一个新突变（c.1380c〉a）,该突变在家系中与疾病表型共分离,并且在100名正常对照中均未发现该突变。结论：我们的研究结果扩大了ABCB6基因的突变谱,进一步确认了该基因在眼组织缺损发病中发挥了重要作用。

简介：本次会议是中华医学会一类学术会议。会议将以知识更新、讲座和学术论文报告相结合的形式进行学术交流。现将征文有关事项通知如下：一．征文内容眼科相关的基础及临床研究、眼科管理、科研方法和教学方面的研究论文或经验体会以及眼科的录像、图片及绘图资料。

简介：目的对改良翼状胬肉手术方法进行安全性评估的研究。方法188例翼状胬肉患者随机分为实验组和对照组。实验组接受改良方法进行翼状胬肉手术。对照组按照《眼科手术图谱》传统翼状胬肉切除术方法进行手术。记录所有患者手术时间、术后角膜上皮修复时间。术后每周随访,记录术后1周、2周、3周、4周时结膜充血情况及结膜充血完全消退时间。随访3个月,记录发生角巩膜溃疡、结膜肉芽以及翼状胬肉复发的病例数。结果实验组有96人完成随访,对照组有92人完成随访。实验组患者角膜上皮修复时间为2.42±0.68天,对照组为4.27±1.05天,P〈0.05,差别有统计学意义;实验组结膜充血评分术后1周、2周、3周、4周时分别为3.31±0.47、2.76±0.74、1.89±0.860.94±0.70,对照组分别为3.84±0.37、3.58±0.67、2.93±0.71、1.85±0.78,两两比较P〈0.05,差别有统计学意义。结膜充血消退时间实验组为5.15±0.92周,对照组为7.20±1.08P〈0.05,差别有统计学意义。实验组未发生结膜肉芽,对照组为14例,P〈0.05,差别有统计学意义。实验组发生角巩膜溃疡4例、复发4例,对照组为7例、5例,P〉0.05,差别无统计学意义。结论改良的翼状胬肉手术方法在术后角膜上皮修复时间、术后结膜充血程度、结膜充血消退时间、结膜肉芽发生率上忧于传统手术方法,差别有统计学意义。在角膜溃疡发生率、翼状胬肉复发率上改良手术方法与传统手术差别无统计学意义。

简介：目的方法结果结论对安徽省两地人群盲和低视力及眼病的流行病学情况进行抽样调查。选择阜阳市颍州区和宣城市绩溪县,采用随机整体抽样方法,对所属居民进行眼部及其他情况的调查。两地的受检人数和受检率分别为3336人（91.40%）和3602人（92.10%）,达到抽样调查要求;两地双眼盲、单眼盲、双眼低视力和单眼低视力的患病率分别为1.05%和0.69%、1.71%和1.25%、1.02%和0.97%、0.87%和0.89%;两地盲和低视力的主要原因分别为：白内障、弱视、青光眼和白内障、眼球萎缩/缺如、青光眼;两地主要眼病都为：屈光不正、白内障、翼状胬肉和沙眼;两地的白内障手术率分别为600和278。据不完全资料估计我省盲和低视力的患病率远高于全国平均水平,盲和低视力的高发人群为50岁以上老年人,女性,孤寡,文盲,低收入者,白内障仍是最主要致盲原因,屈光不正/弱视已日益成为影响人民特别是青少年视力的最主要因素,广泛宣传正确用眼方式,推广青少年正确验光配镜方法,提高相关人员验光配镜水平对于有效降低弱视致残率至关重要。
