    Eye diseases in 1028 children below 15 years of age, seen at the Eye clinic of the University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria were studied. Refractive error, vernal conjunctivitis, measles keratitis associated with malnutrition and those referrable to injuries were leading causes of eye problems amongst children. Diseases of ocular adnexa (excluding orbital cellulitis) squints, glaucoma, uveitis and trachoma were rare.
