Incidence of Impaired Vision due to Refractive Errors among College Students of Calcutta

  • Measurements of visual acuity and ocular refraction are, therefore, important.

  • The incidence of impaired vision due to refractive errors among young college students in Calcutta was studied during 1970–71.
