The examination of 250 cases of onchocerciasis from the Sudan-savanna of northern Cameroon showed a strong association between microfilarial invasion of the eye and microfilarial skin concentrations at the outer canthus. It was also shown that the presence of a head nodule was associated with a high microfilarial skin concentration around the eye. It is suggested that these findings are of practical importance in the field for the early detection of cases at risk of developing serious ocular lesions.
对来自喀麦隆北部苏丹 - 萨赫勒地区的250例盘尾丝虫病患者的检查显示，眼部微丝蚴侵袭与外眦部皮肤微丝蚴浓度之间存在密切关联。研究还表明，头部出现结节与眼部周围皮肤微丝蚴高浓度有关。有人认为，这些发现对于在实地早期发现有发展为严重眼部病变风险的病例具有实际重要意义。
