Summary

This study reviews the medical records of 2,000 people in Upper Egypt who applied for visual disability certification between 2020 and 2024. Researchers will analyze eye exams and tests to find the most common diseases causing severe vision loss. The goal is to understand which conditions are most responsible for visual impairment in this region.
