Summary

This study aims to develop and test a simple scale that caregivers can use to detect common eye disorders in adults with intellectual disability. Researchers will collect data from 1,400 participants, including socioeconomic information, daily living skills, and eye exam results. The goal is to create a reliable tool to help identify vision problems early, improving access to eye care for this often-overlooked group.
