Residence, gender, hospitalization time, age at surgery, and the presence of other ocular abnormalities and system disease were statistically analyzed in different subgroups.RESULTS: Four hundred and thirty-seven hospitalizations(306 in-patients) diagnosed with CEL from a total of 283 308 hospitalizations were identified, which accounted for 0.15% of the total in-patients. Of the identified CEL in-patients, the total ratio of boys to girls was 2.22:1. Based on a subgroup analysis according to age, patients aged 12-18 years old constituted the highest proportion(31.70%) of all hospitalized CEL patients, and those 0-3 year old constituted the lowest proportion(8.82%) of the total number. The number of CEL increased from 18 to 72 and the hospital based prevalence increased from 8.60% to 18.10% from 2006 to 2015, and the average age at surgery decreased from 9 years old in 2006 to 7.6 years old in 2015. CONCLUSION: The results reveal upward trends in both the number of CEL hospitalizations and hospital based prevalence of CEL in this 10-year study period, but a reduction in the age at surgery, which may reflect the increase of public awareness of children's eye care in China.展开更多
