Associations between vision impairment and vision-related interventions on crash risk and driving cessation: systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To systematically investigate the associations between vision impairment and risk of motor vehicle crash (MVC) involvement, and evaluate vision-related interventions to reduce MVCs.

Design

Medline (Ovid), EMBASE and Global Health electronic databases were systematically searched from inception to March 2022 for observational and interventional English-language studies. Screening, data extraction and appraisals using the Joanna Briggs Institute appraisal tools were completed by two reviewers independently. Where appropriate, measures of association were converted into risk ratios (RRs) or ORs for meta-analysis.

Participants

Drivers of four-wheeled vehicles of all ages with no cognitive declines.

Primary and secondary outcomes

MVC involvement (primary)
