The Prevalence of Age-Related Eye Diseases and Visual Impairment in Aging: Current Estimates
Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science · 2013 · Vol. 54(14) · pp. ORSF5–ORSF5
Abstract
Ongoing prevalence surveys designed to provide reliable estimates of visual impairment, AMD, age-related cataract, open-angle glaucoma, and DR are needed. It is important to collect objective data on these and other conditions that affect vision and quality of life in order to plan for health care needs and identify areas for further research.
