Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eye health is an important part of public health. It is estimated that more than 40 million people are blind and more than 550 million people suffer from mild to severe visual impairment by 2020. In addition, at least one billion people worldwide suffer from visual impairment, most of which could have been prevented. The majority of people with vision impairment and blindness are over the age of 50 years; however, vision loss can affect people of all ages. The World Health Organization reports that the top causes of blindness and vision loss include cataract, uncorrected ametropia, glaucoma, age-related macular disease, diabetes retinopathy, etc. As people's lifestyles change, the disease spectrum is evolving across the globe, and responses and strategies need to change in time. Efforts to reduce the prevalence, incidence, progression of eye diseases could have a profound impact on public health. The aim of the current Research Topic is to focus on recent and novel research trends in ocular diseases (glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, myopia, etc) and visual impairment, especially preventive strategies to avoid younger age of ocular diseases onset and vision loss. Additionally, new studies are important to identify strategies that would help better screen ocular diseases or prevent vision loss. We aim for a state-of-the-art collection of articles that will provide professionals and managers with knowledge of the risk factors, prediction, screening, management, and prevention of ocular diseases, as well as the risk factors, prediction, management, and prevention of vision loss.
