The purpose of this study is to analyze the data concerning ocular injuries, congenital abnormalities, and the conjunctival flora of newborns. For this reason, randomised 224 newborns at Ankara Central Maternity Hospital were examined. We found 2,2 percent ocular congenital malformations and abnormalities 2,6 percent extraocular congenital malformation and abnormalities among these babies. The fewest lesions have been met in those delivered by the Cesarian section, and all delivered that were made by forceps and other equipment have had some lesions depending on the birth trauma. We also found a close correlation between maternal vaginal flora and newborn conjunctival flora.
