Abstract :
Objective: This study looked into the types of
eye injuries, age distribution, and demographic profile of
patients receiving ophthalmic evaluation. The main goals
were to determine the frequency of ocular injuries across
age groups and to identify any possible correlations
between age and particular ocular disorders.
Method: A retrospective examination of patient records
was conducted as part of the study to look at the ocular
damage data and demographics of people who had
ophthalmic evaluations. The distribution of gender and
age was recorded, and the significance of the relationships
between age groups (10–30 years and 31–60 years) and
different kinds of ocular injuries was evaluated using the
Chi-square test. The following injury types were taken into
consideration: Ac cells, hyphema, iris damage, cataract,
retinal haemorrhage, vitreous problems, Berlin edema,
corneal haze, epithelial defect, corneal abrasion, ocular
infection, corneal ulcer, corneal opacity, corneal
perforation, and facial and lid injuries.
Result: According to the demographic data, there was a
preponderance of men (80.4%), and the majority of people
(71.1%) were in the 10–30 age range. The Chi-square tests
on ocular injuries that followed showed noteworthy
relationships with age groups. Notably, the age range of 10
to 30 years old was more likely to experience facial and lid
injuries, corneal haze, epithelial defect, ocular infection,
corneal ulcer, and Berlin edema. On the other hand, the
age group of 31 to 60 years old was more likely to
experience subconjunctival haemorrhage, conjunctival
chemosis, corneal abrasion, iris damage, cataract, andsymblepharon. The statistical importance of these
correlations was shown by the overall Chi-square test
results (Df 19, sig.000*, chi-square 243.546).
Conclusion: The study found that patients receiving
ophthalmic evaluations were distributed differently by
gender and age. In addition, noteworthy correlations were
found between age cohorts and particular categories of
ocular trauma, emphasizing age-related differences in the
incidence of particular visual disorders. These results
provide important new information about the clinical and
demographic features of patients who present with ocular
injuries. This information can be used to develop tailored
preventive and treatment plans for various age groups.
