Summary

This study looked at 100 older adults (60+) to see if those with severe vision loss from age-related macular degeneration have more shoulder pain, stiffness, and movement problems compared to those with normal vision. Researchers measured pain, range of motion, and daily living abilities using questionnaires and physical exams. The goal is to understand how vision loss may contribute to shoulder issues and reduced quality of life.
