A disease commonly seen in infants and young children, especially those who are artificially fed or have suffered from general debility. At first the pupil of the eye becomes dry, dull and cloudy, then part of it crumbles and becomes ulcerated, and a hole develops there, causing blindness within two or three days. It is caused by a lack of vitamin A. Source: The Selected Edition of the Japanese Language Dictionary About the Selected Edition of the Japanese Language Dictionary Information |
