Visual Accuity and Longevity

Happy Halloween everybody! Hope everybody is dressing up, My kids are being Spiderman, Boba Fett, and a black cat. I am going out as Darth Vader. If you are new to parenting, you are probably also realizing that candy is an alcohol equivalent for children and they literally become “drunk” after several pieces of concentrated sugar. Sorry Mormon church…..concentrated sugar is a drug.

But enough about candy!

Today on Full Scope, we are going to talk about a very important Longevity Metric – Visual Accuity, or how clearly a person can see things.

For longevity metrics, we are going to look through 3 lenses

1. Common-Sense: Does it make sense that a given metric would impact longevity

2. Clinical: Do I see evidence that a given metric impacts longevity in my clinical practice

3. Research: Do research studies demonstrate that a metric impacts longevity.
