Article Synopsis
  • - The study, conducted over two years at RL Jalappa Hospital in Karnataka, India, examined the causes of eye problems in children aged 0-12, revealing that 57% of the 56 patients were male and a significant number had a family history of eye issues.
  • - A high percentage of the children's parents were in consanguineous marriages, with 41% in second-degree and 59% in third-degree relationships, contributing to the congenital eye conditions observed.
  • - The research identified nasolacrimal duct anomalies as the most common eye issue (32%), suggesting that increased education and counseling on the risks of consanguinity and other factors during pregnancy could help prevent ocular morbidity in children.
