Based on the current situation of patients with retinal diseases in China and the clear requirements of the "14th Five-Year Plan for Eye Health (2021-2025)" to strengthen the construction of the prevention and control system for retinal diseases, experts in the field of retinal diseases in China have conducted in-depth and comprehensive thematic discussions, and used the modified Delphi method for collective decision-making and opinion solicitation, ultimately forming consensus and consistent guidance suggestions for the management of chronic diseases of retinal diseases that are in line with China's national conditions. This consensus includes key content such as definitions, treatment plans, and follow-up frequency for the management of chronic diseases of the fundus. It clearly proposes relevant measures to improve the management process of chronic diseases of the fundus, and elaborates on the advantages and feasibility of establishing an online remote platform for the management of chronic diseases of the fundus, in order to assist doctors in formulating personalized treatment plans and ensure that patients receive standardized treatment and follow-up. This consensus will provide guidance and reference for the management of chronic diseases and long-term standardized diagnosis and treatment of major fundus diseases in China.
Chronic disease is a major threat to human health. Fundus disease has become a major ophthalmic disease affecting daily life. Although great breakthroughs have been made in the treatment, compared with other chronic disease management, the management of patients with fundus disease is still in its infancy. To strengthen the management exploration of patients with fundus diseases, establish a management model of fundus diseases and strive to improve patients' awareness of fundus diseases and adherence to treatment and follow-up are the great challenges at present. All ophthalmic centers should strengthen patient education, establish a regional cooperation network, support the construction of grassroots medical capacity, cultivate talents, enhance training, promote the standardized treatment of fundus diseases, standardize fundus imaging inspection and diagnosis, and promote the homogeneous construction of diagnosis and treatment of chronic fundus diseases. We will accelerate the construction of a hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system and the ability to link consultation and referral. Through systematic management and intervention of fundus diseases, a large number of patients with fundus diseases will receive early screening, diagnosis, standardized continuous treatment and systematic management, and improve the quality of life of patients with fundus diseases.
We have made a statistic analysis on all the theses carried in the 31 issues of the journal of The Ocular Fundus published in the nine years from its first issue to the change of its title by using the method of informetrics.The results show that the journal carries 18.03 original papers each issue on the average,and the average citation is 6.54 articles each paper.The main sources of the information for the authors of the ocular fundus diseases in China is from the periodicals (78.65%).The language for the citation is mainly English(58.39%).The half-life periods for Chinese and English periodicals are 3.67 years and 8.42 years respectively.We recommend 4 Chinese periodicals,6 English periodicals and 1 Japanese periodical as the key periodicals of this special field.This study reflects the present situation and future trend of the special field of oculare fundus diseases of China's ophthalmology.It provides reference materials for authorship in this field and data for infomation science.It is also part of the summary about the journal of The Ocular Fundus. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1993,9:225-228）
The COVID-19 causes multiple organ dysfunction such as respiratory system, meanwhile it causes ocular fundus diseases threatening visual function. The occurrence of COVID-19 related fundus diseases is associated with retinal capillary ischemia, thrombosis, and immune inflammatory response. COVID-19 related fundus diseases mainly include cotton wool spots and microhaemorrhages, retinal vascular occlusion, paracentral acute middle maculopathy, acute macular neuroretinopathy, uveitis, and endogenous endophthalmitis. We will summarize the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 related fundus diseases based on literature reports and clinical practice, and share some thoughts on its diagnosis and treatment.
