摘要

综述目的:在本文中，我们回顾了COVID-19大流行对屈光手术的影响。最新发现:COVID-19感染常引起眼部症状，最常见的是结膜炎或轻度刺激。虽然可以在有症状患者的眼泪中检测到病毒，但通过这一途径传播的风险似乎很低。总结:大流行期间屈光手术咨询显著减少;然而，由于一些生活方式、健康和财务因素，交易量正在迅速反弹。激光屈光和眼内手术可能使病毒传播的风险较低，特别是在无症状的患者中。在屈光会诊前进行筛查，在诊所和手术室进行表面消毒，有助于进一步降低传播风险。

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Refractive Surgery.

Purpose of review: In this article, we review the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on refractive surgery.

Recent findings: COVID-19 infection frequently causes eye symptoms, most commonly conjunctivitis or mild irritation. While virus can be detected in tears of symptomatic patients, the risk of transmission via this route appears low.

Summary: Refractive surgery consultations were significantly reduced during the pandemic; however, volume is rebounding quickly likely due to a number of lifestyle, health, and financial factors. Laser refractive and intraocular surgery likely confer a low risk of virus spread, especially in asymptomatic patients. Screening prior to the refractive consultation and surface disinfection in the clinic and operating room can help reduce transmission risk further.

期刊介绍： This journal aims to offer expert review articles on the most significant recent developments in the field of ophthalmology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions, the journal intends to serve those who diagnose, treat, manage, and prevent ocular conditions and diseases. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the field. Section Editors select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An Editorial Board of more than 20 internationally diverse members reviews the annual table of contents, ensures that topics include emerging research, and suggests topics of special importance to their country/region. Topics covered may include age-related macular degeneration; diabetic retinopathy; dry eye syndrome; glaucoma; pediatric ophthalmology; ocular infections; refractive surgery; and stem cell therapy.
