Visual acuity and self-reported vision status.
This study examined the associations of two measures of vision impairment (i.e., a clinical measure of visual acuity and self-reported vision status) and social isolation in a nationally representative sample of Americans aged 60 and older. Effects of both measures of vision impairment in predicting social isolation were substantially reduced or eliminated in adjusted models.
