Copyright © 2022. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS..
INTRODUCTION: We conducted this study to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown in France from March 17, 2020 to May 10, 2020, on the ophthalmic emergency department at Toulouse University Hospital, compared to the period from March 2 to March 16, 2020.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a retrospective observational study, conducted in the ophthalmic emergency department of Toulouse University Hospital. We included the patients presenting to the emergency department from March 2 to May 10, 2020. We recorded age, sex, day of visit, time until care was received, past ocular history, outpatient or inpatient status, final diagnosis and its severity, outpatient or inpatient disposition, and medical or surgical treatment after the emergency department visit.
RESULTS: We found a substantial decrease in the number of patients per day, mostly during the first month of the lockdown: 44 patients per day before the lockdown compared to 23 patients per day during the first month, followed by 38 patients per day for the second month of lockdown; more patients visiting promptly; and elderly patients represented a higher proportion of patients.
CONCLUSION: The first lockdown in France due to the COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the Toulouse ophthalmic emergency department, especially concerning the number of patients per day; this study helps to assess individual behavior in this context of a public health crisis.
