Abstract

The prevalence of vision impairment increases with advancing age. There are few treatment options to restore vision to its premorbid level in most age-related eye diseases (e.g., diabetic retinopathy [DR], age-related macular degeneration [AMD], glaucoma), and thus low vision rehabilitation is the most promising treatment to improve visual functioning and help people cope with vision-related disability. Effective provision of low vision rehabilitation requires an understanding of the psychosocial and psychiatric factors confronted by older people and how these factors may interact with late onset vision loss. Depression and cognitive impairment, distinct but oftentimes comorbid conditions, are the most common psychiatric disorders affecting older people with impaired vision.
