- The initiative 2030 In Sight and the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness aim to reduce preventable vision loss globally, prioritizing the need for eye health data in East Africa, a region with high rates of childhood blindness and severe visual impairment.
- Recent studies (1995 and 2009) highlighted the causes of these conditions, but updated data is necessary to track current trends.
- An analysis of eight articles involving 534 cases from six countries identified common causes of childhood blindness, mainly linked to the cornea and cataract, and recognized systemic relations to diseases like measles and toxoplasmosis, suggesting a need for further investigation into these associations.
