%X Nine hundred and eighteen patients with glass-related injuries were studied retrospectively. Forty per cent of the injuries were due to architectural glass, which resulted in more severe injuries, required more complicated plastic/surgical repairs and needed longer treatment time. It also produced more disabilities in all age groups. These injuries can be prevented by the use of safety glass in residential buildings, a usage which should be legally enforced as in the USA.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
