Modern authors estimate from 47 p. 100 to 78 p. 100 the frequency of ocular lesions in leprosy. This frequency varies according to the duration and type of the disease. These lesions may result from a paralysis of the V or VII cranial nerves, or from a bacteremia, but, more probably, from a spreading of the bacilli from the nasal cavity through the lacrymal ducts. The various lesions of each ocular structure are described with reference to the T. or L. type of leprosy.
现代作者估计麻风病眼部病变的发生率为每100例中有47至78例。该发生率因疾病的持续时间和类型而异。这些病变可能源于第五或第七对脑神经麻痹，或菌血症，但更可能是由于杆菌从鼻腔通过泪管扩散所致。每种眼部结构的各种病变根据结核样型或瘤型麻风病进行描述。
