Prevalence of Falls and Fall-Related Outcomes in Older Adults with Self-Reported Vision Impairment.

The prevalence of falls, FoF, and activity limitation due to FoF is high in older adults with self-reported VI. This is the first study to provide nationally representative data on the prevalence of fall-related outcomes in older Americans with self-reported VI. These findings demonstrate the need to treat avoidable VI and to develop interventions to prevent falls and fall-related outcomes in this population. J Am Geriatr Soc 67:239-245, 2019.
