Persistent socioeconomic disparities and delayed onset in blindness due to neonatal disorders: global burden and future projections
The burden of ND-related blindness remains substantial. The heavier burden in low SDI regions and the delayed onset of blindness due to the cumulative effects of ND may be underestimated. Urgent improvements in medical resource allocation and long-term eye health follow-up for ND survivors are needed.
