AIM: To provide reference for clinical work by analyzing the correlation between the operation opportunity and prognosis of open ocular trauma patients.

METHODS: Sixty-two cases(62 eyes)of open ocular trauma patients admitted to our hospital during the period from Dec. 2013 to Jan. 2016 were selected as the research subjects. The patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 31 cases(31 eyes)in each group. Observation group patients were treated in 3d of vitreoretinal surgery after injury. The patients in the control group underwent vitrectomy within 1 to 2wk after injury of pars plana. Two groups of patients with preoperative eye injury and postoperative treatment effect, complications and visual acuity recovery were compared.

RESULTS: Two groups of patients with preoperative corneal laceration, retinal detachment, vitreous and lens rupture eye injury situation were no significantly difference(P<0.05). The prognosis of the two groups were compared. The treatment effect of the patients in the observation group were significantly better than the control group. The observation group of patients with postoperative complications were significantly lower than that of control group at the same time. The observation group patients' postoperative visual acuity recovery was significantly better than the control group and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).

CONCLUSION: Open ocular trauma surgery was significantly correlated the between operation time and prognosis status. It is beneficial to achieve better therapeutic effect on the patients with vitreous body surgery. It also can reduce complications and help the recovery of visual acuity patients after operation.
