In Finland, during the 20 yr period 1958-1978, 35 patients with amblyopia lost the vision of the healthy eye. In > 50% the cause was traumatic. The incidence of the loss of the healthy eye was 1.75 .+-. 0.30/1000. During the same period in Finland the overall blindness rate of children was 0.11/1000 and of adults aged 15-64 yr 0.66/1000. For the amblyopic patient the risk of becoming blind is markedly higher than for the general population.
