Recent Publications of the WHO and GBD Estimating the Prevalence of Vision Loss• 2 distinct studies estimate the global prevalence and causes of
blindness and visual impairment:1) World Health Organization Prevention of Blindness and Deafness Programme (WHO PBD)2) An expert group as part of the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries and Risk Factors Study (GBD).
• Both update the previous WHO estimates from 1995, 2002, and 2004 • Differ in their methodology and results for the estimates of global blindness and visual impairment.

Epidemiological Studies in Latin America
• Since 1999, there have been 23 RACSS (Rapid Assessments of Cataract Surgical Services) or RAAB (Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness) studies carried out in Latin America
• These regional or national population-based epidemiological studies provide:
• the prevalence and percent cause of blindness in a defined area• Cataract Surgical Coverage• Cataract Surgical Outcomes• Local barriers to cataract surgery.
• The current preferred methodology in the region is the RAAB.
• Door to door VA measurement• VA< 20/60 Eye exam• Only one cause of visual impairment/blindness is assigned
per eye• Clusters are randomly selected based on 50 participants
≥ 50 years old
RAAB Methodology
RAAB Indicators
• CSC indicates the percentage of cataract surgeries that are being carried out based on the VA and cataract surgical needs of the population and is an indicator of equity and distribution of cataract surgeries..
• The cataract surgical outcome is an indicator of the quality of cataract surgery.
• Good post-operatory visual outcome: VA >6/18;• Poor outcome (with available correction): VA <6/60.
• At least 90% of patients should have a post-operatory VA better than 6/60 to indicate adequate quality of care.

• It may not always be possible to accurately diagnose causes of posterior segment disease
• Prevalence of blindness in people aged under 50 cannot be estimated
• Does not measure the prevalence of diseases. It measures the prevalence and causes of visual impairment/blindness.

What a RAAB Does Not Do
RAAB Indicators in Latin America
Based on the results of the RAAB studies in Latin American countries:
• Prevalence of blindness ranges from 0.9% in Uruguay to 3.5% in Venezuela • Cataract is the leading cause of blindness, ranging from 44% of blindness in Paraguay to 74% in Ecuador.• CSC ranges from as low as 15% in cataract patients in El Salvador to as high as 77% in Uruguay.• The percentage of good surgical outcomes ranges from 56% in El Salvador to 70% in Uruguay.

Eye Health Indicators in Mexico: Number of Cataract Surgeries
Given the total population of 116.2 million, a government national blindness prevalence rate of 1.5%, and 67% of blindness is caused by cataract (from the RAAB + RACSS), then:
A Closer Look at the Cataract Situation in Mexico
• 116.2 million * 0.015 * 0.67
= 1,167,810 people with cataract blindness in Mexico, or how many cataract surgeries at least should be done each year. • Only 180,000 surgeries are being done in Mexico
=> Cataract Surgical Shortfall = 987,810 (85%)

Cataract Situation in Queretaro
If you consider the state population is 1.8 million, the official government national prevalence rate is 1.5%, and 67% of blindness in Mexico is caused by cataract (according to the RACSS + RAAB) then:
• 1.8 million * 0.015 * 0.67 =
• 18,090 people with cataract blindness in Queretaro
If we now consider Santiago de Queretaro with 863,000 with same data we have 9,061 people with cataract blindness
Cataract Situation in Queretaro
According to IMO estimates, there are approximately 700 cataract surgeries performed each year at the Institute and another 700 surgeries performed in Queretaro by other providers.
• 1,400 cataract surgeries performed each year in Queretaro
• At least 18,090 surgeries should be performed each year
• Cataract surgery shortfall = 16,690 (92%)
When considering the annual cataract incidence 20% increase of cataract cases…
• Total cataract surgeries needed = 21,708
• Cataract surgery shortfall= 20,308 (94%)
And this is only considering blinding cataract!!
• Mexico is only doing approximately 15% of the cataract surgeries it should be doing to meet the national population’s needs.
• Queretaro is only doing approximately 8% of the cataract surgeries it should be doing to meet the state population’s needs.
• IMO is doing half (50%) of the cataract surgeries in Queretaro, but you should be doing a lot more!!
Key Cataract Lessons Learned
Introduction to the Economic Burden of Blindness and Visual Impairment
We have just reviewed the blindness and visual impairment data.
I would now like to discuss for the remainder of my presentation the economic burden of blindness and visual impairment.
The cost of blindness (COB) and cost of moderate and severe visual impairment (COMSVI) have a wide range of socio-economic implications on the individual, when considering unemployment, caretaking requirements, loss of mobility, inability to read due to vision loss, increased dependence on others, and lower quality of life.
Introduction to the Economic Burden of Blindness and Visual Impairment
There has not yet been one standard method to carry-out cost-analyses of blindness.
Studies have considered direct costs of blindness and visual impairment, including treatment and rehabilitation, and indirect costs of blindness, including caretaker’s costs and productivity loss.
Introduction to the Economic Burden of Blindness and Visual Impairment
We are going to take a closer look at the loss of economic productivity due to blindness and MSVI, which could be avoided if people with preventable and avoidable blindness were treated and able to enter the work force and work at full (or increased) productivity.
This simplified methodology estimates the costs of loss of productivity for all causes and moderate and severe visual impairment for the age group ≥ 50 years.
Key terms associated with Productivity Loss
Gross domestic product (GDP) purchasing power parity (PPP) per capita: The total market value of all recognized final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time divided by the population on a given date with the total value relative to another currency (such as in terms of USD). GDP is often considered the indicator of standard of living.
Gross National Income (GNI) per capita: (All resident producers + product taxes ( - subsidies) + net receipts of primary income from abroad) / mid-year population
Minimum Wage (MW): The lowest hourly, daily, or monthly remuneration that must be legally paid to workers
Source: Wikipedia
Methodology: Assumptions
• We will assume the loss of current MW and the loss of GNI per capita as a result of unemployment or reduced employment due to visual impairment with all individuals working until 65 years old.
• Second, about half of the blindness or visual impairment is allotted to the 50-64 years-old group.
• For COMSVI, an individual MW/GNI per capita loss of 30% is assumed.

COB and COMSVI Using MW and GNI, +50 years
Key Model Conclusions
This simplified method to calculate productivity loss due to visual impairment can be calculated annually using the 2010 GBD data with economic and demographic data updated regularly on the UN, ILO, and World Bank websites.
Total economic burden is incomplete, as caregiver, disability, or treatment costs are not included.
Although the majority of people with blindness and visual impairment live in developing countries, the highest economic impact is in middle to high income countries, due to their higher minimum wage and GNI.
Key Conclusions
Eye Health Interventions Can Save Billions in Productivity Loss !
This same exercise can be completed to calculate the COB and COMSVI in Queretaro.

Key Takeaways to Economics Implications of Blindness and Visual ImpairmentThe Impact of Cataract Surgery on the Economic Burden of Productivity Loss of Blindness and Visual Impairment
Aravind Eye Hospital in India conducted a survey on productivity gains following sight-restoring cataract surgery.
• 85% of male patients and 58% of female patients, who had lost their jobs as a result of their previous cataract blindness, were able to re-enter the work force after their cataract surgery.

Key Takeaways to Economics Implications of Blindness and Visual ImpairmentThe Impact of Cataract Surgery on the Economic Burden of Productivity Loss of Blindness and Visual Impairment
A study based on poverty and VI in Kenya, the Philippines, and Bangladesh, likewise found that 1 year after cataract surgery:• patients increased productivity by an average of 1- 2 hours per day• patients spent less time inactive and required less assistance from other household members. • Per capita expenditure of cataract patients also increased to the levels of people who did not have VI in their communities.
The results of these studies show that cataract surgery can alleviate poverty and lead to economic gain in productivity.

Key Takeaways to Economics Implications of Blindness and Visual ImpairmentKey Takeaways to the Economic Burden of Blindness and Visual Impairment in Queretaro
• Productivity loss due to blindness and VI costs Mexico billions each year and costs Queretaro millions each year. • The economic gain of eye health intervention (i.e., cataract surgery) in Mexico has yet to be studied.• The first RAAB to be carried out in Queretaro by IMO in 2014 could be a great opportunity to survey the local population with cataract blindness on their economic gains following cataract surgery.• Cost of blindness studies are important advocacy tools to gain greater eye health investment from the government, NGOs, industry, and other stakeholders.
Key Takeaways to Economics Implications of Blindness and Visual ImpairmentIMO Strategic Planning: An Important Opportunity to Become the Leader in Eye Care in the Region
The strategic planning exercise that is currently being undertaken at the IMO presents an excellent opportunity to convert the IMO into a comprehensive eye care and training center of excellence that can serve as a key referral center for Mexico and, through e-learning and long-distance learning initiatives, can become an important regional training center for Mexico and Latin America.
