近视防控已经上升到我国国家战略层面，高度近视引起的视神经病变会损害视功能，但在临床上常常被忽视。OCT可以非侵入、高分辨率、快速以及可重复地定量视网膜各层厚度，是评估高度近视相关视神经病变的有力工具。由于高度近视常合并视盘和盘周的改变，视神经纤维层厚度的定量常出现误差。近年来，学者开始聚焦于黄斑区神经节细胞复合体(ganglion cell complex,GCC)厚度的研究，但其在高度近视眼中的变化规律尚不统一。该文针对近年来高度近视眼黄斑区GCC的测量规范、诊断价值、变化规律等进行综述，以期提高眼科医师对高度近视视神经病变的重视和研究水平。
Myopia prevention and control has risen to the national strategic level in China. Optic neuropathy caused by high myopia can damage visual function, but it is often ignored in clinical practice Optical coherence tomography (OCT) characterized by non-invasiveness, high resolution, rapid, and repeatable quantifying the thickness of each layer in the retina has emerged as a powerful tool for evaluating high myopia related optic neuropathy. Due to the changes in and near the optic disc in high myopia, errors often occur in the quantification of the thickness of the optic nerve fiber layer. In recent years, researchers have gradually focused on the study of the thickness of ganglion cell complex (GCC), but the regularity of its changes in high myopia is not yet unified. This article reviews the measurement specifications, diagnostic values, and change rules of GCC in the macular region of high myopia in recent years, in order to improve the attention and research level of ophthalmologists on high myopia optic neuropathy.
眼睛由屈光系统和视觉神经系统两大部分构成，是人体最重要的感觉器官之一。眼部各组织的发育或功能异常都可能造成不同程度的视力损害。目前主要通过动物实验或体外细胞培养的方法探究眼病的病理生理机制和治疗手段，但上述两种方法都存在一定的局限性。体外细胞培养不能完全反映器官的形态、结构和生化特征，而动物模型的物种和遗传背景具有异质性。近年来，随着原代组织、胚胎干细胞、诱导多能干细胞衍生的体外三维结构类器官和器官微流控芯片技术的不断发展，构建出了与在体器官的结构、功能更为相似的器官克隆模型，能够提供更敏感、定量、规模化的表型分析，更好地应用于眼的发育、生理结构、疾病机制、个性化医学诊断和治疗方法等方面的研究。目前，眼科的微流控器官芯片与类器官技术在角膜、晶状体、泪腺、视网膜结构发育和疾病模型均展现出巨大的应用潜力。
The eye is composed of refractive system and visual nervous system. It is one of the most important sensory organs of the human body. The abnormal development or function of eye tissues may cause various degrees of visual impairment. At present, the pathophysiological mechanism and treatment of eye diseases are mainly explored through animal experiments and in-vitro cell culture. However, they are of certain limitations. The in-vitro cell culture cannot fully reflect the morphological, structural and biochemical characteristics of organs, whereas the animal models are heterogeneous of species and genetic background. In recent years, with the continuous development of in-vitro three-dimensional structure organoids and organ microfluidic organ-on-a-chip technology derived from primary tissues, embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells, organ cloning models more similar to in vivo organs in terms of the structure and function have been constructed. These models can provide more sensitive, quantitative and large-scale phenotypic analysis, and can be better applied to the research of eye development, physiological structure, disease mechanism, personalized medical diagnosis and treatment. At present, microfluidic organ-on-a-chip and organoids technologies have shown great application potential in the structural development and disease models’ construction of cornea, lens, lacrimal gland and retina.

At present, there is an imbalance in the development of ophthalmology in China. There are huge differences in the level of ophthalmology related facilities, diagnosis and treatment technologies between big cities and rural, remote areas. New intelligent diagnosis and treatment models are still needed to solve the imbalance. Since the eye is the only organ that can directly observe the blood vessels and nerves of the human body, the eye can reflect the health status of other organs and diagnosis of eye diseases based on medical images of some ophthalmic examinations can be made as well as other characteristics. Therefore, the development of artificial intelligence in ophthalmology has unique advantages. In addition, artificial intelligence can improve the accuracy and efficiency of information transmission across time and space to a certain extent. The advantages of artificial intelligence in ophthalmology and telematics are helping to solve the imbalance in ophthalmology development. From the perspective of the application of ophthalmic artificial intelligence in telemedicine, this paper mainly analyzes and summarizes the development degree, advantages and existing problems of artificial intelligence in the telemedicine of ophthalmic diseases in China, and discusses the prospect of the application of ophthalmic artificial intelligence in telemedicine.

Objective: To investigate the practical effect of the integrated group cooperation model in managing patients with fundus diseases in day surgery. Methods: 582 patients with fundus disease who underwent day surgery from January to June in 2022 were included as the control group, and 633 patients with fundus disease who underwent day surgery from January to June in 2023 were selected as the study group. The control group implemented the overall responsibility nursing system, while the study group carried out the collaborative management model, integrating medical and nursing for the entire process of patient management. Chi-square test and T-test were used to compare the differences of perioperative nursing knowledge, health education awareness, satisfaction, emergency ophthalmological consultation rate within 24 hours of discharge, follow-up rate within 24 hours of discharge, and nurses' sense of professional benefit between the two groups. Results: The awareness of health education in the study group was higher than that in the control group, and there was significant statistically difference between two groups (t=–18.47, P<0.05). The satisfaction of patients in the study group was higher than that in the control group, and there was significant statistically difference between two groups (t=–4.005, P ＜ 0.05). The follow-up rate within 24 hours after discharge was 100% in the study group and 98.1% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=12.073, P<0.05). The incidence of ophthalmic emergencies within 24 hours of discharge in the study group was 0.94%, while in the control group it was 1.89%. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (χ2= 1.951, P=0.222). The perceived benefit score of nurses after implementation was higher than that before implementation, and there was statistically significant between two groups (t=–6.637, P<0.05). Conclusions: The medical and nursing integrated group cooperation management model is used to manage the entire perioperative process of patients undergoing day surgery in fundus surgery. This model can improve patients' medical experience, enhance their compliance with ophthalmic surgery, ensure their safety.
