防盲是眼科最重要的目标,许多因素与防盲相关,包括科学和技术、经济和社会行为.世界卫生组织(WHO)、非官方组织及其它的功能组织在推动防盲活动方面遍及全球.90%以上的盲人生活在发展中国家.白内障是盲的最主要原因且是可治性的.盘尾丝虫病是西部非洲和中美洲的一种地方病.盘尾丝虫控制规划(OCP)是在发达国家资助下由WHO在1974年建立的,旨在控制盘尾丝虫病.传播媒介(钠苍蝇属)的控制以及新的药物使该计划在根除此疾病以达到防盲的目的方面有着成功的前景.还将讨论由沙眼、儿童盲、青光眼及糖尿病致盲的状况.眼部疾病的分子遗传学的进展为将来这些疾病所致盲的预防开辟了途径.
Prevention of blindness is the most important goal of ophthalmology, and many of the factors are related to prevention of blindness, including science and technology, economic and social behavior. WHO, non-governmental organizations and other functional organizations are global in promoting anti-blind activities. More than 90% of the blind people live in developing countries. Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness and are manageable. Onchocerciasis is a endemic disease in western and Central America. Ochotona curvatus Control Program (OCP) Was funded by the developed countries and was established by the WHO in 1974 to control onchocerciasis. The control of the vector (Sodium Flies) and the new drugs have made the program effective in eradicating the disease in order to prevent it There are prospects for success, and the status of blinding by trachoma, childhood blindness, glaucoma, and diabetes will also be discussed. Advances in molecular genetics of ocular diseases have opened the way to future blinding prevention of these diseases.
