Vision Problems in the U.S. from Prevent Blindness: Tracks the prevalence of adult vision impairment and age-related eye disease in America.
Older Americans With a Disability: 2008–12: Nearly 16 million older adults have at least one disability. Data was collected from the American Community Survey (ACS) on six types of disability: hearing, vision, cognition, walking, self-care, and independent living. People who reported any one of the six disability types are considered to have a disability. Data was compiled by the U.S. Census Bureau. The report was commissioned and funded by the National Institute on Aging of the NIH. It is the first Census report on disabilities among older people and looks at disability status by age, gender, marital status, education and poverty status.
