It is well-known that older adults are at higher risk of falls and resulting injuries. Falls and their aftermath are one of the major public health concerns in aging societies. The aging-related risk of falls and fractures can be attributed to factors such as deteriorating muscle strength, balance, and vision.^1,2 One way to further break down the vision factor can be by age-related eye diseases such as cataract, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and glaucoma. Given their rapidly increasing prevalence, understanding the risk of falls by diagnosis of these eye diseases has clinical and societal importance. However, population-based risk assessment for falls and injuries in adults with these eye diseases has been lacking, as previous studies (cross-sectional or cohort) were either based on relatively small samples or based on self-reports. A recent large-scale population-based cohort study of fall risk by Tsang et al³ addressed the issue by investigating the medical records of more than 3 million individuals.
