Bringing Clarity to Life: The Link Between Vision Loss and Mental Health

When everything around you starts to blur, it feels like sitting in your apartment on a rainy day in London, gazing out at the street. Through your glass window streaked with raindrops, the streetlights emit a soft, hazy glow. You want to see it more clearly, but the raindrops blurs your vision. This sense of depression and detachment actually is a daily reality for many people with visual impairments. 

A recent report published in Nature highlights the significant link between visual impairment and mental health issues, such as anxiety and depression. In a study conducted on individuals aged 60 and above in Tehran, Iran, over 12% of participants were found to have some form of visual impairment.  The findings revealed that individuals with visual impairments experienced higher levels of physical symptoms, anxiety, and depression, with the total General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) scores significantly higher compared to those without visual impairments.

Mental disorders are a critical public health concern among older adults, often leading to emotional distress, family strain, and worsening of existing medical conditions. While visual impairment becomes more common with age, the report highlighted that many mental health disorders and vision-related conditions can be alleviated or even treated when detected early.
