Why it matters

Some eye diseases are particularly prevalent among certain demographics. For example, cataract – which is one of the world’s leading causes of blindness – is experienced by more than nine out of 10 over 80s*. But it is the collective burden of eye disease that is most stark. More than 2.2 billion people are believed to have a visual impairment** and eye disease is estimated to account for 4% of global disability-adjusted life years (DALYs)***. However, preventable or treatable eye diseases are prevalent in more than 90% of those with a vision impairment****. Successful research efforts are key to reducing or minimising the impact of eye diseases.
