Investigating the Trajectories of Poor Vision in Children and Adolescents in Wuhan, China From 2016 to 2019: Prospective Cohort Study
The prevalence of poor vision among children and adolescents in Wuhan has remained high over the years, with a slight decrease in recent years. The study identified three groups: normal vision, vision decline, and moderate poor vision. Girls and students from urban areas were more likely to have moderate poor vision, while boys and rural students had a higher proportion of vision decline. These findings provide valuable information for implementing poor vision prevention and control policies in the region.
