Dr. Ogbe James, an Ophthalmologist at the
University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, on Friday,
said that constant washing of the face can
prevent blindness.
James said this at an annual healthy talk programme
organised by the Knights of St. Mulumba, Nigeria, held
at St. Paul’s Catholic Church, Gwagwalada, Abuja.
According to him, the common disease condition that
leads to blindness in our society include cataract,
glaucoma, refractive error, xerophthalmia, tracheoma
and onchocerciasis.
“The prevention of blindness involves early detection
of the disease which attracts early intervention and
those that are detected late can involve operation.
“The prevention of blindness involves health
education like embracing basic eye hygiene like
washing of face and eating of vitamin A rich diet to
prevent blindness,’’ he said.
James also advised Nigerians to avoid self-medication
and educate children to avoid playing with sharp
objects.
He encouraged members to embark on preventive
measures by regularly having eye checks in an eye
clinic and by an ophthalmologist.
