A true case of bilateral anophthalmus congenitus found in a newbom
male calf was investigated morphologically on the occasion of World Health Week 1976
which was made the occasion in Turkey of BliT/dT/ess Week.
The main anatomical defects causing this blindness are described and discussed from
the viewpoint of comparative teratology. The optic nerve and retina were abscnt, both orbits were filled with a fatty and fibrous connective tissuc.
As a result of this study, and because the literature indicates that this malformation is
not uneommon in cattle it is propose d that the cow wou!d be a good experimental animal
for the invesrigation of congenital anophtha!mia in order to gain an understanding of the
prineipa! causes and mechanism governing the development of congenita! anophthalmia
in human beings.
