Community-based vision health screening with on-site definitive exams: Design and outcomes

In the U.S., the prevalence of blindness is expected to double by 2050 and as many half of those with blinding eye disease are unaware of their diagnosis. Screening for vision health in the community setting may offer a key strategy to address the rising trend avoidable vision loss. However, problem...
