What is RIVER BLINDNESS?
River Blindness is a blinding eye disease caused by a parasitic worm. Infected black flies inject these worms into a person’s body and the worms release millions of larvae that crawl through the body. As the larvae die, they release a toxin that causes agonizing itching. When the corpses settle in a person’s eye, they cause permanent blindness.
