| Research Abstract |
We examined the association of vision impairments(as measured by objective methods) with the composite outcome of dependence in ADL and death, and whether this association differed by gender. In both genders, vision impairment was related to an elevated risk of the outocme(multi-adjusted RR for men & women=1. 60, 95% CI=1. 05-2. 44), with no significant differences between the genders.
