Abstract

Beyond Visual Acuity—A Comprehensive Assessment of Vision and Cognition in Older Adults With Visual Impairment

Highlights

  • Recognizing this limitation, we read with interest the recent findings by Varadaraj and colleagues.[4]

  • The results of this study[4] are of great interest, it should be noted that other visual function system (VFS) components, such as visual field and color vision, were not included, which may limit the study’s main conclusion that impaired contrast sensitivity is associated with declines across several cognitive domains

  • Future studies investigating the association between the spectrum of VFS components and cognitive domains are needed to confirm the study’s findings

Summary

Introduction

Recognizing this limitation, we read with interest the recent findings by Varadaraj and colleagues.[4]. The results of this study[4] are of great interest, it should be noted that other VFS components, such as visual field and color vision, were not included, which may limit the study’s main conclusion that impaired contrast sensitivity is associated with declines across several cognitive domains.
