Onchocerciasis, also called river blindness, is an illness spread by the bite of tiny blackflies that carry a worm parasite. It can cause itchy skin, rashes, bumps under the skin, and over time may damage the eyes and lead to poor vision or blindness. It is found mostly in parts of Africa and nearby regions where these flies live.
