Abstract
Objective
To observe the relationship between pilots' physiological data of anterior eye segments and flying time in order to provide a reference basis for better ophthalmological health care.
Methods
The ophthalmological data of the fighter pilots who were in the physical examination for transformation in General Hospital of Air Force or in annual examination but hospitalized due to non-ophthalmological reasons. Pilots were divided into 1 000 h group (n=23). Statistical analysis was done with SPSS 19.0 software.
Results
Pilots of different age groups had no statistic differences in visual acuity, axial length and mean corneal curvature (P>0.05). The ratio of astigmatism with the rule and astigmatism against the rule between age groups also showed insignificant difference (χ2=0.013, P>0.05). Pilots in 0.05). Axial length negatively correlated to mean corneal curvature in all pilots (r=-0.813).
Conclusions
Pilots' physiological data of anterior eye segments are mainly correlated with age but with flying time.

期刊介绍:
The aim of Chinese Journal of Aerospace Medicine is to combine theory and practice, improve and popularize, actively advocate a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, advocate seeking truth from facts, promote the development of the related disciplines of aerospace medicine and human efficiency, and promote the exchange and penetration of aerospace medicine and human efficiency with other biomedical and engineering specialties.
Topics of interest for Chinese Journal of Aerospace Medicine include:
-The content of the journal belongs to the discipline of special medicine and military medicine, with the characteristics of multidisciplinary synthesis and cross-penetration, and mainly reflected in the aerospace industry, aerospace flight safety and efficiency, as well as the synthesis of special medicine, preventive medicine, environmental medicine, psychology, etc.
-Military aeromedicine (Air Force, Navy and Army aeromedicine) and civil aeromedicine, with a balance of aerospace medicine are the strengths of the journal.
-The change in aerospace medicine from a focus on promoting physiological compensatory adaptations to enhancing human performance under extreme environmental conditions is what the journal is helping to promote.
-The expansion of manuscripts in high altitude medicine is also a special emphasis of the journal.
