What is Visual Function Tests and Hip Fractures about?
This study investigates the association between visual function tests and low fragility hip fractures in an elderly Malaysian population. Results indicate that poorer visual acuity, stereopsis, contrast sensitivity, and visual field defects significantly increase the risk of hip fractures and falls. The authors recommend annual ophthalmological examinations for individuals aged 55 and older to assess these risks.
