Approximately 28% of U.S. adults aged 71 and older have vision impairment, with the rate increasing with age. This program will provide an overview of common eye conditions that affect older adults and the impact they can have on daily life. We’ll also explore practical resources and supports available to help maintain independence, as well as questions you can bring to your eye doctor to better understand your vision health.
