Study Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if interventions within the nursing home to restore vision, or cope with visual loss, in residents with visual impairment result in improvement or less decline in mobility scores, and socialization scores, compared to residents with visual impairment in nursing homes with no such intervention. The investigators hypothesized that nursing home residents with visual loss who receive cataract surgery, or refractive correction, or low vision aids would have have better socialization scores and mobility scores at 6 months and 12 months compared to nursing home residents with visual impairment who are advised to seek services, but have no specific program.
