摘要：
We used data from the Longitudinal Aging Study in India (LASI) to provide up-to-date epidemiological estimates of the prevalence of vision impairment among the Indian population. We find that older adults, and particularly women, marginalized groups and those from lower socioeconomic strata, had a higher prevalence of visual impairment.
