As the Eyes Go, So May the Mind
THURSDAY, June 28, 2018 -- A new study sheds light on how vision loss is linked to mental decline in seniors.
For the study, University of Miami researchers analyzed health data from more than 2,500 adults, aged 65 to 84, who were followed from about 1993 to 2001.
The investigators found that the rate of vision loss was associated with the rate of declining mental (cognitive) function. But mental function did not have a strong effect on vision, according to the report.
