Bledsoe's disease was a virus transmitted by air and physical contact. Squills were known to be carriers of the disease.
Different strains of the disease existed, each causing unique reactions. Commonly, Bledsoe's caused the skin to burn, followed gradually by discoloration of the eyes. The discoloration resolved itself into a starfield pattern, which, despite appearances, had absolutely no impact on the eyesight of the afflicted. Late stages of the disease also include a sense of dizziness.
