ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Gradation of Disability in Human Body Injuries ï¼hereinafter referred to as Gradationï¼ has been released and used since January 2017, and has become the most widely used standard in forensic science practice. This paper calculates and rates the visual system evaluation provisions of the current domestic disability evaluation criteria represented by the Gradation which used the methods of Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment ï¼hereinafter referred to as GEPIï¼ issued by American Medical Association ï¼AMAï¼. Through comparing, a good correlation between the provisions in Gradation and whole person impairment rating index in GEPI was shown. On the basis of this, suggestions are put forward to amend some provisions of Gradation, in order to provide reference for the revision and further improvement of domestic standards and provisions.
