AT the request of the Committee on the Causes and Prevention of Blindness appointed by the Ministry of Health I made an enquiry into all cases of eye injury admitted as indoor patients to the Ophthalmic Department of the Glasgow Royal Infirmary during the five years 1909-1913 inclusive.The cases numbered 927.For the purpose of this paper I extended the enquiry back to June, 1908, so as to have a total of 1000 cases.The above years were chosen as " normal" years unaffected by the war.Dr. Maitiand Ramsay was ophthalmic surgeon to the hospital during the period in which the cases were admitted, and I desire to express my thanks to him for permission to use the hospital journals,
