Summary
This study looks at how vision loss from glaucoma impacts the ability of older adults to move around and go places (called 'life space'). Researchers will measure vision under dim light and compare it to how far and how often participants leave their homes. The goal is to understand the link between glaucoma-related vision problems and reduced mobility, which can affect independence and quality of life.
