چکیده
wartime employment opportunities for some blind persons or members of their families with marginal employability ended with the war. As a result, many blind persons turned to public assistance for their maintenance. Other factors have undoubtedly contributed to the increase in the number of persons receiving aid to the blind. Among these is the increase in the total population, particularly the steadily rising proportion of aged persons, since it is in this group that certain of the more prevalent types of blindness are found. It is also possible that some additions to the rolls are a direct consequence of curtailed activities for the prevention of blindness and conservation of sight among the civilian population during the war, when large numbers of medical personnel, including ophthalmologists, were assigned to the armed forces.
