Since the new century, the ophthalmology industry in China has maintained the momentum of rapid development. New technology, new equipment and new drugs are widely used, the level of ophthalmology clinical service is obviously improved, the strength of ophthalmology institutions is strengthened, the overall level of ophthalmologists is obviously increased, the domestic and international academic activities are increasingly active, and the overall development of the discipline is accelerated.

On October 1, 1950, the Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology was founded with the first anniversary of the birth of New China. It has been more than half a century since now. The older generation of journal runners have experienced the hardships of founding, the helplessness of suspending and the joy of resuming; After entering the 21st century, the new generation of journal runners have kept pace with the times, created new situations constantly, and made gratifying achievements, but the achievements can only explain the past, and the task of creating the future is more arduous. The editors and reviewers of Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology, while affirming the achievements, carefully analyzed the main problems existing in the current journal running, put forward practical and feasible improvement measures and efforts in recent years, and will continue to unite and join hands with fellow ophthalmologists all over the country to strive for the sustainable development of Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology.

Since the beginning of the new century, surgical treatment of cataract blindness has continued to be the focus of prevention and treatment of blindness in China. The largest prevention project of blindness in the world, "Vision First China Action", has achieved great results. In the five years from 1997 to 2001, 2.06 million cases of cataract recovery surgery were carried out, which has realized the historical transformation that the number of cataract surgery in China exceeded 400,000 new cases of cataract blindness every year. Local governments at all levels have actively organized and carried out prevention and treatment of blindness. The rate of cataract surgery has increased significantly. New progress has been made in the epidemiological research of eye diseases. At present, the most important problem in prevention and treatment of blindness is the slow progress of radical cure of cataract blindness. This is a problem in the development of prevention and treatment of blindness in China and can be solved.

Corneal surgery is mainly corneal refractive surgery and keratoplasty. Although China is already a big country in LASIK surgery, it is not a powerful country in technology, and there are still problems such as unclear professional division of labor, no clear surgical access system and strict industry management. With the deepening of reform, these problems must be solved. Regarding corneal transplantation, China has made great progress in quantity and technology, especially in surgical technology, which has been at the forefront of the world, but our problems are also very prominent, mainly the legislation of donor cornea, eye bank preservation and safety detection technology. The establishment of surgical access system is undoubtedly a great progress.

The progress of cataract extraction surgery and intraocular lens research was briefly expounded, with emphasis on reviewing the new achievements in cataract extraction surgery techniques, instruments and equipment, intraocular refractive surgery and intraocular lens research in China in the past five years, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of various new technologies; It emphasizes the importance of strictly selecting indications and standardizing operation when developing new techniques, and puts forward that the healthy development of new techniques in ophthalmology should be promoted actively and steadily.

Because the basic problems of early diagnosis, pathogenesis, gene screening and function determination, optic nerve injury and protection, scar regulation after filtration, stem cell culture and natural animal model formation, epidemiological research are still in the stage of discussion, it is necessary to review the clinical and basic research progress of glaucoma in China in the past five years, analyze the problems existing in the field of glaucoma research, clarify the future research direction of glaucoma, and further promote the further development of clinical and basic research of glaucoma.

In recent five years, great progress has been made in clinical treatment and basic research of fundus diseases in China, and rich clinical experience and a large amount of research data have been accumulated. In clinical aspects, photodynamic therapy of choroidal neovascular membrane and transpupillary thermotherapy have been gradually carried out in China. Vitreous surgery and intraocular injection of triamcinolone acetonide for macular edema, radial optic nerve incision for central retinal vein occlusion, comprehensive prevention and treatment of retinopathy in premature infants, comprehensive treatment of intraocular tumor and renewal of vitreoretinal surgery technology and equipment have made rapid progress. In basic research, Chinese scholars have made remarkable achievements in diabetic retinopathy, retinoblastoma, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, retinal pigment epithelial cells, retinal transplantation, gene therapy of fundus diseases and other research fields, which indicates that the clinical and basic research level of fundus diseases in China is basically in line with international standards, and some research results have reached the international advanced level.

Refractive correction surgery has developed rapidly in recent years.The examination methods before refractive correction surgery are becoming more standardized,the surgical methods of refractive correction are developing constantly, and the progress in foreign countries is gradually synchronized.The accumulation of clinical experience has improved the surgical quality. The basic research of refractive correction surgery provides a theoretical basis for clinical surgical treatment.With the continuous improvement of people's requirements for visual quality in recent years, refractive correction surgeons will face new challenges.

In the past five years, under the guidance of the Ophthalmology Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the joint efforts of all professionals, the basic and clinical research of strabismus and amblyopia in China has made great progress. Our researchers and clinicians have paid hard work and made fruitful achievements in the research of molecular and neural mechanisms of amblyopia, the plasticity of visual development, the brain functional imaging of amblyopia, the extraocular muscle Pulley, the diagnosis, treatment and epidemiology of strabismus and amblyopia.

According to literature reports, mechanical ocular trauma occupies an important proportion in the outpatient and inpatient ophthalmic department of county-level hospitals in China, and the blindness of ocular trauma is the first place when discharged. The prevention and treatment of ocular trauma is still one of the main tasks of ophthalmologists in China. In recent years, the international classification and division of ocular trauma have been gradually recognized and adopted. The level of treatment of ocular trauma in the first stage has been generally improved, the timing of surgery in the second stage has been widely paid attention to, the indication of primary enucleation has been strictly controlled, and important progress has been made in the salvage effect of the eye affected by enucleation. In addition, the establishment of a national ocular trauma registration network and the implementation of multi-center research are important steps to effectively prevent ocular trauma and improve the treatment level.
