Glaucoma's hidden toll: how vision loss traps seniors at home

NCT ID NCT04396002

Summary

This study aims to understand how glaucoma affects older adults' ability to move around and participate in activities outside their home. Researchers will compare 100 people with glaucoma to those with healthy vision, focusing on how well they see in dim lighting. The goal is to learn whether vision problems in low light make it harder for people with glaucoma to get out and about in their community.
