- Refractive Error in Underserved Adults: Causes and Potential Solutions
To evaluate the epidemiology of uncorrected refractive errors (URE) in adults both in the US and globally, health outcomes impacted by URE, common barriers to treatment, and propose potential interventions URE is the main cause of visual impairment
- Effective refractive error coverage in adults: a systematic review and . . .
An expert elicitation process was used to choose covariates for a Bayesian logistic regression model used to estimate eREC by country–age–sex grouping among adults aged 50 years and older
- Prevalence of Visual Impairment in the United States
Abstract Context The prevalence of visual impairment in the US public has not been surveyed nationally in several decades Objective To estimate the number of US individuals aged 12 years or older who have impaired distance vision due to uncorrected refractive error
- Global estimates on the number of people blind or visually . . . - Nature
Global estimates on the number of people blind or visually impaired by Uncorrected Refractive Error: a meta-analysis from 2000 to 2020 Vision Loss Expert Group of the Global Burden of Disease Study
- Case Definitions: Vision Loss and Blindness
The VEHSS composite estimates of visual acuity loss estimate the prevalence of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) loss or blindness in the better-seeing eye by combining multiple sources of data available in VEHSS
- VEHSS Modeled Estimates: Vision Loss and Blindness
These estimates do not include vision loss due to inadequate corrective glasses or contacts (uncorrected refractive error) They also do not capture impairment caused only by visual field or contrast sensitivity problems Vision Loss: best corrected visual acuity 20 40 or worse Blindness: best corrected visual acuity 20 200 or worse
- The Prevalence of Refractive Errors Among Adults in the United States . . .
However, population-based studies havedemonstrated that refractive errors often are not adequately corrected inthe general population; rather, they generally are the leading cause of mildvisual impairment observed in population-based studies in developed nations 4, 6, 8, 11 - 13 Inaddition, vision loss uncorrectable by refraction may occur as
- Racial Disparities in Uncorrected and Undercorrected Refractive Error . . .
Targeted efforts to provide culturally appropriate education, accessible vision screening, appropriate refractive correction, and routine follow-up to these medically underserved groups should be pursued as a public health strategy Keywords: ethnic disparities, healthcare access, NHANES, racial disparities, refractive error
