RESUMO
History of 'ophthalmia' is as old as history itself; no race or community is immune to it. There were times when blinding trachoma took a form of disastrous epidemics. The historical and recent literature are reviewed in this paper.

RESUMO
A Bedouin family is described with an unusual form of spinocerebellar degeneration. Spastic ataxia was found to be associated with congenital cataracts, macular corneal dystrophy and non-axial myopia, in the absence of retardation of somatic or mental maturation. Immunological abnormalities were common. Genetic analysis revealed that the pedigree is expressing the transmission and segregation of a single mutant autosomal recessive gene.
