Postural stability changes in the elderly with cataract simulation and refractive blur.

Postural stability changes in the elderly with cataract simulation and refractive blur.

PURPOSE. To determine the influence of cataractous and refractive blur on postural stability and limb-load asymmetry (LLA) and to establish how postural stability changes with the spatial frequency and contrast of the visual stimulus. METHODS. Thirteen elderly subjects (mean age, 70.76 ± 4.14 [SD]...
