*10.12. Trachoma*

*Chlamydia trachomatis* is the cause of trachoma, a disease of the eyes related to water shortage. Water can be important in reducing trachoma, where the F and E of the SAFE strategy (surgery, antibiotics, facial cleanliness and environmental improvement) were strongly linked to disease reduction [169]. Another trachoma SR found the studies too limited to demonstrate the impact of F and E [170]. The SAFE interventions are dramatically reducing disease but could be disrupted in chaotic situations associated with climate change.
