Trends in prevalence and disability-adjusted life years for refractive disorders in China and globally from 1990 to 2021: an analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
The age-standardized rates of prevalence and DALYs for RD have decreased in recent years and may continue to decline over the next decade. However, the crude rates of prevalence and DALYs are on the rise. The health burden of RD remains substantial, with females and the older population bearing a higher burden than males and younger populations.
