  Why can't we simply get our facts right? There are too many ignorant people including MPs in the system. First of all glacuma is NOT an infection of the eye, but results from raised eye pressure (similar if you like to high blood pressure).
  
  Secondly it is not the commonest cause of blindness worldwide. Vitamin A deficiency which also happens to be very common, and is largely preventable, is the commonest cause of blindness, affecting over 200 million people. If glaucoma is such a serious problem, yes, it should be highlighted and tackled, including public education but stop misleading people about its cause. If you don't know, please ask those who know - health workers! before you open your mouth to speak.

  Get life, Nyame Ba. You're very ignorant. Even during Jesus' time there were thousands of blind men/women in Israel, but He didn't go about healing everyone of them. How do you expect men of God today to go round from street to street or from clinic to polyclinic and hospitals healing every blind man. Is that their mandate? Their mandate is to preach the good news to the world and those who believe and accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour will get their deliverance. But tell me, how many people today want to hear this good news, come on. Leave Men of God alone. And from the way you are thinking you need Jesus also.
