Periodic Reporting for period 1 - EUROVISION (Self-reported vision status and associated risk factors in Europe: prevalence and temporal change)

Período documentado: 2018-09-17 hasta 2020-09-16

Resumen del contexto y de los objetivos generales del proyecto

Eurostat data provides an important opportunity to investigate the prevalence of self-reported visual difficulties and also to relate this to potential risk factors that are also collected by the Eurostat program.
The primary objective is to estimate the prevalence of self-reported vision impairment in Europe.
Secondary objectives include estimation of self-reported dual sensory loss and of self-reported hearing loss in Europe.

Trabajo realizado desde el comienzo del proyecto hasta el final del período abarcado por el informe y los principales resultados hasta la fecha

"The preliminary results of the analyses on self-reported vision impairment has been presented in Belfast during the E3 meeting (a meeting on epidemiology) the 7th of June 2019.

- A first manuscript entitled ""Self-reported visual difficulties in Europe and related factors: a European population-based cross-sectional Survey"" has been submitted to a European Journal indexed on PubMed. The manuscript is currently Under review by the journal.

- A second manuscript on dual sensory loss, entitled ""Self-reported dual sensory impairment and related factors: a European population-based cross-sectional Survey"" is currenly under review by the coauthors. It should be submitted to an indexed international journal within 3 to 4 weeks.

- 2 abstracts on EUROVISION have been submitted to the ARVO (Association for Research in Vision) international meeting in Baltimore 3-7 may 2020.
Both abstracts have been accepted for presentation beginning of May 2020.
Abstract # 3351429 entitled Self-reported dual sensory impairment in Europe and related factors. Data related to this abstract will be presented by Pr Serge Resnikoff (Brien Holden Vision Institute and SOVS, University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW, Australia)
Abstract # 3346949, Self-reported visual difficulties in Europe and related factors.

- 1 article accepted in an international journal in 2020 (Acta Ophthalmologica): Self-reported visual difficulties in Europe and related factors: a European population-based cross-sectional survey

- 1 manuscript submitted (Under review) for Scientific report: A European Population-Based Cross-Sectional Survey of Self-Reported Dual Sensory Impairment."

Avances que van más allá del estado de la técnica e impacto potencial esperado (incluida la repercusión socioeconómica y las implicaciones sociales más amplias del proyecto hasta la fecha)

The publication should provide original informations on visual problems and on dual sensory loss in Europe, globally and country by country.
It would also provide important informations on socio-economic, demographic and medical factorspossibly associated with sensory problems.
