Loss of Independence. Xxxxx et al.’s Tanzanian study (2001) found that among women, trichiasis alone, even in the absence of any visual acuity loss, causes difficulties in performing daily tasks, and loss of visual acuity compounded these difficulties, which is supported by the present study. The inability to move about and work affects every other aspect of these women’s and their families’ lives. Women are important contributors to fieldwork and are the primary contributors to housework and childcare (UNICEF, 2006). Many of the women in the present study were involved with microenterprise and had either had to stop or decrease their activities when they developed trichiasis. There is evidence that women and men use their earnings differently, and that women are more likely than men to invest their income in goods and services that improve the well- being of the entire family (Xxxxx, 2012); therefore, when a women becomes too disabled to work, all family members may be negatively affected. In addition to decreased income, there is increased financial output, as wood, water, food, which the woman would normally collect or grow herself, may need to be purchased. In addition, there is increased spending on treatments to alleviate the pain of the disease. This decreased or absent income may also diminish a woman’s influence within the home. While many of the operated women stated that they had made their own decisions to be operated, this was generally in the context of free surgical service provision and transportation to and from the surgical camp site. Broader discussions with both patients and male heads of households around household decision-making revealed that women were involved in the decision-making process when they could contribute financially. When women no longer have a meaningful income, they may no longer be consulted about household affairs.
