Abstract |
In 2018, 14.9% of adults aged ≥18 years had some difficulty seeing even when wearing glasses, and 1.6% had a lot of difficulty or could not see at all. The percentage of adults who had some difficulty seeing even when wearing glasses decreased as income increased, from 19.3% among those with income below the poverty threshold to 11.3% among those with income ≥400% of the poverty threshold. The percentage of adults who had a lot of difficulty or could not see at all also decreased as income increased, from 4.2% among those with income below the poverty threshold to 0.8% among those with income ≥400% of the poverty threshold.
