The latest Mental Health Insights are now available on the VI Insight Hub.

People living with Visual Impairment (VI) may be at greater risk of developing mental health conditions, such as depression and/or anxiety. The association between VI and mental health may be determined by the significant impact of VI on an individual’s functional ability, activities of daily living and self-identity.

The research available calls for greater recognition of the psychological impact of sight loss and for mental health support to be available throughout the eye care pathway.
