Trachoma is a neglected tropical disease caused by infection with conjunctival strains of Chlamydia trachomatis. It can result in blindness. Pathophysiologically, trachoma is a disease complex composed of two linked chronic processes: a recurrent, generally subclinical infectious–inflammatory disease that mostly affects children, and a non-communicable,

Trachoma is a keratoconjunctivitis caused by ocular infection with Chlamydia trachomatis. Repeated or persistent episodes lead to increasingly severe inflammation that can progress to scarring of the upper tarsal conjunctiva. Trichiasis develops when scarring distorts the upper eyelid sufficiently to cause one or more lashes to abrade the cornea ...

Trachoma is the most common infectious cause of blindness. Repeated episodes of infection with Chlamydia trachomatis in childhood lead to severe conjunctival inflammation, scarring, and potentially blinding inturned eyelashes (trichiasis or entropion) in later life.

Trachoma is the most common infectious cause of blindness. It is caused by ocular serovars of Chlamydia trachomatis. Transmission is favoured in poor communities, where crowding is common and access to water and sanitation inadequate. Repeated reinfection over many years causes dense scarring of the upper eyelid.

International Ophthalmology, 1990
Trachoma causes one-quarter of the world's blindness and, although it has disappeared from many developed areas, it remains a major problem, especially in underprivileged rural areas in developing countries. Recent advances in the understanding of the molecular biology of chlamydia offer encouragement for the eventual development for an effective ...

Since many have failed to cultivate the cause of trachoma, it seemed best to try special media. I had been doing some cultivation of the Koch-Weeks bacillus on 5 per cent. peptone, alkaline agar, and decided to try that same composition for the cause of trachoma, but, having in mind the fact that the gonococcus grows only in the presence of fresh blood

During half a century, the agent of trachoma could be mainly demonstrated by inoculation to the conjunctiva of animals; by this mean the cycle of the agent could be revealed. There was a huge progress when T'ANG for these studies inoculated embryonated chicken eggs.
