Epidemiology of cataract: accomplishments over 25 years and future directions.

Ophthalmic epidemiology - 1 Jan 2000

West Sheila

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this review is to highlight the advances made by epidemiologic research into cataract. Considerable progress has been made in characterizing phenotypes, determining the prevalence and incidence in various population groups, and understanding risk factors for cataract. Cataract surgery research has documented functional improvements following surgery and has identified aspects of surgery delivery...
