descriptionMeasurement of clarity or sharpness of vision, which is the ability of the eye to see and distinguish fine details. This assessment will provide information on rates of good to poor visual acuity in the cohort studied. The level of visual acuity is related to all ocular diseases and disorders, and is considered to be the most significant vital sign of ocular function. Visual acuity is often used to stratify respondents for more valid related comparisons, such as refractive errors (use or need for glasses or contact lens correction), which can be genetically influenced.
