The cause of vision loss was assumed using the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes for cataract, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma, retinal detachment, retinal vein occlusion, corneal opacity, or amblyopia documented in the electronic health record. The no vision loss cohort was created by subtracting the vision loss cohort from the 2018 total IRIS Registry database.</div></div><div><h3>Main Outcome Measures</h3><div>Primary analyses provided age-adjusted prevalence ratios (PRs) for vision loss conditions for women and men within the vision loss cohort relative to the 2018 US census.

However, these differences were attenuated when age-adjusted prevalences were computed relative to those who were seen in 2018 in the IRIS Registry database. In women, the prevalence of vision loss associated with cataract and AMD was increased in both analyses, while men had a higher prevalence of vision loss associated with retinal detachment in both analyses.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Women in the US are more likely to be diagnosed with vision loss at an IRIS Registry practice compared with men, based on clinical presentations relative to the US census. However, this finding is partly driven by the higher rates at which women presented to ophthalmic practices in both the vision loss cohort and no vision loss cohort. The age-adjusted prevalence for vision loss associated with cataract and AMD was higher in women when utilizing both the US census and the 2018 IRIS Registry database as the denominator, which suggests that a true difference in prevalence is present. The same is true for an increase in the age-adjusted relative risk for vision loss associated with retinal detachment in men. These findings warrant further study.</div></div><div><h3>Financial Disclosure","PeriodicalId":74363,"journal":{"name":"Ophthalmology science","volume":"5 4","pages":"Article 100735"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143681873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevalence of high myopia increased with age, peaking at 0.46% among children aged 10 to 14 years; the number of incident cases annually increased in 5- to 9-year-olds and 10- to 14-year-olds. In the year 2020, when the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic occurred, a discontinuous increase in the number of incident cases of myopia was observed in children aged 8 to 11 years, not 12 to 14 years.
