Refractive error blindness - WHO
Refractive error blindnessRakhi Dandona1& Lalit Dandona2 Recent data suggest that a large number of people are blind in different parts of the world due to high refractiveerror because they are not using appropriate Refractive correction. Refractive error as a cause of blindness has beenrecognized only recently with the increasing use of presenting visual acuity for defining blindness . In addition toblindness due to naturally occurring high Refractive error , inadequate Refractive correction of aphakia after cataractsurgery is also a significant cause of blindness in developing countries. blindness due to Refractive error in anypopulation suggests that eye care services in general in that population are inadequate since treatment of refractiveerror is perhaps the simplest and most effective form of eye care.
Magnitude of refractive error blindness We carried out a literature search to identify informationfromdifferentpartsoftheworldon themagnitudeofblindnessduetorefractiveerror
