Cluster sampling was used to draw the sample proportional to size at each camp and then systemic random sampling was used to select participants. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.0.0. This study was estimated at 95% confidence level. Results: 78% of blinds were illiterate. 17% has family history of blindness with significant association among the first degree relatives (P-value=0.003). Smoking was an associated risk factor in term of frequency of tobacco consumption (P-value=0.041) and obesity was inversely associated factor (64%) of Body Mass Index less than 30.
