Perspectives
I hope that this article makes people understand that trachoma is truly a problem in some parts of the developing world. It should also give the motivation that once trachoma is identified it can be controlled and indeed eradicated. This is also important in providing evidence for setting up programmes aimed at the improvement of sanitation and hygiene in various communities. I hope the readers will find this article thought-provoking.
