Refractive error is highly prevalent among urban Vietnamese schoolchildren, and confirmed myopia appears to be rising rapidly at younger ages, which supports closer surveillance and earlier school-based intervention in Vietnam and similar settings.
Objective This study aimed to determine the frequency and profile of key risk factors for presenile cataract among patients aged 30 to 50 years in Kerman, Iran, a region characterized by high solar exposure and specific socio-behavioral patterns. Methods An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in 2024 at the...
