- W86482876 abstract "To describe the 4-year incidence of visual impairment and causes of blindness among black participants of the Barbados Eye Studies.Population-based incidence study.The Barbados Incidence Study of Eye Diseases (BISED) followed the cohort of the Barbados Eye Study (BES), a prevalence study based on a simple random sample of Barbadians 40 to 84 years of age. BISED included 3193 black participants from the original cohort (85% of those eligible).Best-corrected visual acuity (Ferris-Bailey chart) at baseline and follow-up was measured according to a modified Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study protocol. By use of World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, low vision and blindness for an individual were defined as visual acuity (VA) <6/18 to 6/120 and <6/120, respectively, in the better eye. By commonly used US criteria, low vision and blindness were defined as VA < or = 20/40 and < or = 20/200, respectively. Vision loss was defined as a doubling of the visual angle (i.e., decrease of 15 letters or more read correctly between baseline and follow-up examinations). Progression was defined as vision loss among those with low vision at baseline.On the basis of WHO criteria, the overall 4-year incidence was 3.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.0%-4.4%) for low vision and 0.6% (95% CI, 0.4%-1.0%) for blindness. Incidence rates were higher using US criteria: 5.3% (95 % CI, 4.5%-6.2%) and 1.5% (95% CI, 1.1%-2.0%), respectively, reaching 21.5% and 7.3% for persons aged 70 years or older at baseline. One tenth of the cohort had vision loss, and 28.6% of those with low vision progressed. About one half of incident blindness was due to age-related cataract. Nearly one fifth was caused by open-angle glaucoma (OAG) alone or combined with cataract, and approximately 10% was caused by diabetic retinopathy (DR).The incidence of visual impairment was high in this Afro-Caribbean population, particularly in older age groups, indicating the public health significance of visual loss for this and similar black populations. Cataract, OAG, and DR were among the leading causes of incident blindness, paralleling their high prevalence in this population." @default.
