Abstract
The Vision Loss Expert Group (VEEG) has recently reported that globally, 1.1 billion people live with vision loss and 90% of such people live in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) [2]. This report further states that with the current strategy of eye care, changing trends in disease profiles, and increased longevity, the number of people with vision loss is likely to increase by 60%, from 1.1 billion to 1.7 billion, by 2050. The numbers of blind people (vision <3/60) will increase from the current 43 million to 61 million (42% increase); those with moderate to severe visual impairment (vision <6/18, but >3/60) will increase from the current 295 million to 474 million (61% increase); people with mild visual impairment (vision <6/12) will increase from the current 258 million to 360 million (39.5% increase), and those with near vision difficulties will increase from the current 510 million to 866 million (70% increase).
