pubmed:abstractText |
Whereas population-based data on the causes of bilateral blindness have been reported, little information is available on the distribution of causes of central vision loss less severe than the criteria used to define legal blindness. This visual impairment is responsible for a high proportion of eye care service use and results in important reductions in functional status.
