A presentation on Onchocerciasis or River Blindness at the 10th International River Symposium.

Slide 1: A young child leading a blind adult. People living along these rivers receive about 10,000 bites per year from the black fly. Each of the adult worms can be about 50 inches long. Disease starts with itching and then gradually scarring. "Lion's Stare". People have left river valleys with the most fertile land for other less desirable places to get away from river blindness.
