Bitot’s Spots are distinct white patches that appear on the conjunctiva – the
membrane that covers most of the visible part of the eye. Bitot’s spots can expand and develop into a condition called xerophthalmia. Xerophthalmia is a major cause of blindness in children in Africa and Latin
America, and usually occurs between the ages of 3-5 years old. It is generally
associated with malnutrition and Vitamin A deficiency.
