Many visual impairments develop with age with approximately one out of every three adults having some form of vision-reducing eye condition by the age of 65. Age-related visual impairments such as cataracts, glaucoma and macular degeneration are expected to grow rapidly as a result of aging demographic shifts worldwide.
