    Abstract:
    Among the four diseases of greatest concern to the WHO Programme for the Prevention of Blindness--trachoma, onchocerciasis, xerophthalmia and cataract--the first and the last alone have blinded some 26 million people. But the present toll of avoidable blindness in developing countries can be reduced by 50% over the next ten years.
