What is Trachoma?

Also called: Granular conjunctivitis, Egyptian ophthalmia

Trachoma which is also called Granular conjunctivitis or Egyptian ophthalmia is the result of infection of the eye with Chlamydia trachomatis, the leading cause of the world's infectious blindness. Infection spreads from person to person, and is frequently passed from child to child and from child to mother and it is also spread by direct contact with eye, nose, and throat secretions from affected individuals, or contact with fomites (inanimate objects), such as towels and/or washcloths, that have had similar contact with these secretions. Untreated, repeated Trachoma infections result in entropion— a painful form of permanent blindness when the eyelids turn inward, causing the eyelashes to scratch the cornea. Children are most susceptible to infection, but the blinding effects are often not felt until adulthood. Blinding endemic Trachoma occurs in areas with poor personal and family hygiene. Many factors are indirectly linked to the presence of Trachoma including "lack of water, absence of latrines or toilets, poverty in general, flies, close proximity to cattle, crowding etc".

Tamir Goren "When my mother fell ill with cancer I wanted to find a natural solution to help with her suffering. After an excessive research I learned about Wheatgrass. And it seemed to work! She passed through chemotherapy with ease. But was it the Wheatgrass? And if it was, how come it was so hard to find out about it?"
