ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the influence of new weapons in the high-tech war on eye wounds in order to develop the new time-effect treatment strategy. Methods The data of wounds in recent wars were investigated, the causes of eye wounds in high-tech war were analyzed, and the new concept of time effect treatment strategy for eye wounds was proposed. Results The weapons in high-tech war have developed into mass destruction and precisely guided munitions. The main cause of eye wounds is the shrapnel and some new wounds will occur such as eye wounds caused by laser or chemical toxin, radiation cataract. Conclusion In the future high-tech war, the major type of eye-wounds may still be the explosion injury and some new types of eye wounds should be paid more attention. The time-effect treatment strategy should be implemented to meet the demand of improving eye wound therapy and promoting the development of ophthalmology.
