- Really like the new society and culture section. Interesting to hear about the awareness movements arising with childhood blindness Alilovescats ( talk) 19:06, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- The "prevention" section goes in depth and is well written. Gives a detailed explanation of the role that vitamin A plays in causing childhood blindness. DarkKnight05 ( talk) 19:09, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
The organization of this page is great - the progression (causes, mechanism, diagnosis, prevention) matches a framework similar to one clinicians use but is written in a way that I believe is easily accessible for even those not in the medical field. I do wonder if epidemiology would be more appropriate as the first subheading, but that's a minor comment. I appreciate that Vitamin A and retinopathy of prematurity was discussed twice, both in causes and prevention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:645:4000:6770:D9CA:37DD:7BBC:45EC ( talk) 04:39, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
